Default newbie overhaul

Hey all, just bought my first stang from a salvage. I finally got tired of my rice burner. The mustang is a 1989 lx that originally had the 2.3L I4 and an auto transmission. I'm converting to a 302 and a tremec T-5. Setting up custom exhaust. The car is vertually rust-free and for $650 I think I got a descent deal. I already dished out some cash for some 16" rims and some lo-pros. I'm wanting to replace the stock gauges with aftermarket and a buddie of mine si going to help me overhaul an engine. Im curious just how far I can customize the interior. I want seats from a "97 or newer stang and try to also put newer door panels on. Any advise is welcome! Thanks
