Wow!! Just saw this tonight! Sorry to hear about all of this---

I've lived through this once with the Green 69--it sucked. The good part was exactly what you are getting to do now--address some of the things you wanted to. Take care of the motor and frame stuff---you don't get too many opportunities to have both out of the car at the same time--you can always put suspension under it later (Control arms, spindles, etc). I would take the chance and rewire the front half of the car since you have it apart---upgrade wire diameter where necessary, relays, etc. Make it safe from an electrical standpoint as well. Just watch out--like Greg mentioned--otherwise you can end up with a complete tear down and a couple of years of downtime. Keep scope creep under control---funds usually force this upon us--however credit cards scream their loudest in moments like these. Keep us posted on progress---
