Cool 1982 F250 4WD rebuild

Well I'm about to get my drivers license so I'm going to fix my grandpaws old F250. He got it at a state auction for $175 not running, put a starter on it and drove it home. It was parked in 1999 when he died, I pulled it out last week and started going over it. It needs some work, it has some rust and dents (was a work truck) it needs a driver side front fender and a bed. The motor is shot, (no compression) I have a new 302 in my dads old truck, it has less than 2000 miles on it. I also have a Holly carb and Edelbrock intake, all I need is a set of headers.

Know anywhere to get some cheap headers? Best price I found is $147 for Flowtech headers.

Flow-tech is the way to go bud. And that's a very good price for them.

Auto Zone has stainless Flowtechs for $180, I'm probably going to get them.
So far I got two new front fenders and two new doors, $200. A new front driveshaft. Costs over $300 from LMC, I got it for $15. The bed I'm going to get is $150.

Motor is ready to go in. Front fenders, hood, radiator support, rear half of the frame, and drivers door are all painted. Rear axel seals have been changed. I have to clean under the hood, prep the cab for paint, change the gas tank, change the driveshaft, and paint the other door before the weekend.
