69 Valiant how would you do it

OK I've got this 69 Valiant project going on and I'm wondering if it was your car how would you do it and why? Motor - tranny (no cutting )-paint color etc without getting carried away on the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I'm thinking the semi pro tourong

This is the must have items

HDK front suspension
Hotchkis rear leaf springs
Strange S60 Dana
Disc brakes all 4 corners
Two tone blue interior ( limits exterior paint )
Must be an all around fun car
