New from Los Angeles

Hey everyone. I'm new to the site. I signed up a while ago but haven't really been on here. I'm on the Facebook page now and then. I'm a freelance illustrator and graphic designer. You can see some of my artwork on the set of The Big Bang Theory and I've drawn various comic books.
I bought my '65 longbed a little over 2 years ago. Six months later the wiring fried and I haven't been able to afford to fix it. It also needs:
- Brake booster
- Transmission work
- Alternator and bracket
- Tires
- Fix turn signal switch
- Gauges and new bezel made to hold them
- Full exhaust
*Sigh*
My goal right now is to get it on the road by my birthday in July (also the month I bought it in).
I'd like to upgrade to disc brakes, paint it properly (still flat black) and add power steering and a/c, lift it a little and other little things. It has a little ol' 289 in it that runs real well.
Eventually I want to build it into a BOV/ Survival truck and maybe swap it over to 4WD if possible.
