I am trying to figure out why do you want to rebuild a truck that is in good shape. Why not start with one that really needs restoration?
I echo this comment. Learn the LUV and all it's gremlins. Perform a Carb upgrade if you want, make sure the fuse box is properly mounted with no issues (this can be a problem with these rigs) make sure your clutch bracket is in good shape which with the low miles it probably is (that's another problem with these trucks) upgrade the ignition to electronic or go with pertronics, convert it to a one wire alternator....there is a ton of upgrades you can do to enhance this truck and still enjoy the heck out of it for a long time. However, if you are intent on a resto, you have been given a good sequence to start with. Good luck.
