Josh, in case I haven't said it already? Welcome to CL. Check out the SC300/400 build threads, this should give you some ideas, as well as some Inspiration? There's tons of great info, everything from engine swaps, builds, wheel repair, and so on. Check out 1JZPWRD's build thread. He's done a "lil" bit of every thing to his car, and he's documented most of the work. But to some it all up. Set a realistic goal and budget for your SC, pace yourself it can add up quick! Go over the current engine and make sure the maintenance is good to go. check out the Oil condition, No leaky seals, brittle hoses, etc. If you didn't do the swap yourself doing this will give you a piece of mind. I'm sure other members will chime in as well? Cosmetically I would look into getting the grill, and the fogs to start. This should help complete the front? GL and keep us posted.
