change the rear end and the suspension the five lug isn't necessary but might as well if u are gonna have the rearend apart the 8.8. Then i would do the motor, the body work u can do in ur spare time if u don't have money 2 by parts at the moment. The body work should be the last on ur mind. My car is still in primer

I'm with the majority. 5-lug, suspension, engine, body....just makes the most logical approach.

Yes, but what good is all that suspension going to do without a motor? Put the motor in first then suspension then convert( if you want) then paint and body. At least when you get the motor in and running you can drive it!

To me the engine swap would be the hardest part of the job so I would tackle that hurdle first.
