Lose the fog lights but leave the exterior green, repair rust where needed but blend into the original paint. Repop or repair trim as needed and it needs a new black vinyl top but I'd delete the SE badges AND PUT A BLACK INTERIOR IN IT!
Unbolt the front fenders and remove the VIN tag/fill holes and the make everything in the engine compartment and the firewall like new with the new powerplant. And I might consider replacing the radiator overflow jug...
A Scat Pack 6.4L's 485hp/475lbft would move this thing down the road nicely with a matching TREMEC 6-speed!

I like this plan!
