Looking to start restoration.... advice needed

[SocalBurb]

Ok so I have the funds to start my restoration on my 69' K20 4x4 Suburban. I am unsure about were to start!? I do not want to "redo" stuff. So do I go all out and replace motor completely, or rebuild it? Do I rebuild tranny, or replace it? Do I need to replace the axles / suspension components / steering components? What other items should I replace during restoration????????

Here is my list of items I definitely want to complete:

• Rebuilt or New Motor
• Rebuilt or new tranny
• new from fenders/wheel wells
• Disc Brake conversion
• Hookup A/C
• Interior carpet and seat upholstery
• Rust removal (minimal) / Exterior Paint
• New Exhaust system

My goal is to make it a "weekend warrior", not a show truck. I want to be able to jump in and go, without worrying about motor/tranny/etc.

Any advice on were to start, and how to go about it (order) is much appreciated.
