If you haven't already, change that heater core while the dash is out!
Project is coming along great!

What was your process for cleaning up the paint? It looks great and I would love to help my cousin get his '86 vert (same color) looking good again.

If you are going to leave it stock, then leave it SD. The SD cars actaully make something like 10hp more stock for stock IIRC. It wont make any difference with the exhaust.

Make sure you get a quality heater core and not the junk from Autozone or O'Reilly's. I did that and had to change it again after 2 years. Wasn't happy about that!!
Looks like a fun project!

Looking good!
I'd pop that caliper off and make sure the brake hose is back behind the strut. How it is in the picture is dangerous!
