That's a good looking cyclops. Good luck!
What Todd said plus I'd replace the axle seals, the cork gasket and put a set of Xtreme GT braces on it. Also while your doing the fuel system clean the shut off valves out and while you have the engine out clean and repack the CV joint in the steering column.
