Projects New to me 52

So I sold my 46 Chevy PU and bought a 1952 Chevy Styleline Deluxe Sedan. Hated to see the truck go but at 6'4'' it was going to be a tight fit! Anyways always looking for some tribal knowledge / lessons learned from anyone who's walked this path with one of these cars. Much appreciated

 

Are you leaving the stock suspension or upgrading ?

 

The previous owner had a Heidt's Mustang II installed in the front but still have the torque tube rear end in it. Thinking of a V8 in the future with an open drive line.
