If it were me, I'd figure out what to do on the front end and put it all together. It sounds like the front suspension is the only hang up....reinforce the stock set up and get it going and figure what needs to be done from there.
Sounds like a great project and from the list of other cars you own you know what you're doing.

Here's a picture of it from a few years before I bought it. It's a fairly rare car - originally 401 and loaded - P/S, PDB, A/C, auto, console, luggage rack, etc. I found it in Woodbridge, VA on Craigslist. Was a stalled project at that point. Think I paid $3,000 for it and got lots of extra parts. Sold the extras that I didn't need for $3,000 so it was actually a "free' car at one point.
And here's what it looked like recently.
9" full floater, 1* negative camber, 3.50 gear, TrueTrac diff, 11.75" Wilwoods, etc.
Custom UCA next to the stock UCA.
Boxed stock LCA's (no pun intended)
Firewall - closed up unnecessary holes.
Cage
Here's the 401 - bored .030, balanced, unported Edelbrock heads, single plane intake, shorty headers, custom flat tappet from Harold Brookshire.
Front brakes - believe rotors are 13". Originally designed/used on f-body.
