Default 2000 rclb hoopty transition into a nice daily

bought a rclb hoopty chevy every panel has a dent , 2wd no power, rubber mat w/t. well after having it for a half hour I missed having power windows and locks so I started by putting on power doors off of my 03 suburban ( need to use dash harness out of it too hope i can get it to work) that just caused a chain reaction now I want to put in the power seats, bose console, and dash pieces to match...
when i took off dented fenders to replace with nicer ones i had laying around thats when i found melted, twisted rad support and i cant leave it like that so thought about replacing rad support then my girl bought me something I was searching for online.... a rcsb z71 frame its coming out of a yard about 40 miles from me called all american awesome place sent me 11 pics of truck before they tore it down , picking it up saturday . its the blue truck in pics Im getting it with front and rear suspension , 4.10 rears and gas tank for $1500 - think thats a good deal? well here are some pics and a list of parts I have to go into it
2000 4l80e(after i find a 32 spline input for nvg-149)
02 6.0 (going to put in 5.3 4l60 for now out of burban)
07 e fans + 34" radiator
07 acc. except for a/c
nnbs intake
ls9 cam? if so front timing cover, lifters from 07 4.8 (non VVT)& cam sensor not sure what else i need to use it
i think with the 4.10s should be a fun daily with an all motor set up..... what do you guys think of it so far

My longbed is power nothing aswell. I was going to use 99-02 parts so I didn't have to fool with the bcm. Let me know how this goes.

I had a window motor die in my denali the other day, and was thinking "maybe I shouldn't cuss the crank windows in my CC, they never break!"

Looks like it'll be a hell of a project.

I think he gives you 30 days to get the core charge back, so hopefully you can get one and swap it before then. Good luck, I'll be watching your build.
