What do you need? I assume everything?
Anyway, decide what you want the car for, then figure out what you'll need to get there.
I wanted a comfortable hiway cruiser, so I ended up with a 68 convertible, LQ9, LS1 intake, DBW, Vintage Air, 5speed tremec or 6 speed richmond (have not decided yet) aftermarket tilt column, new wiring harness, cloth seats......
you get the idea, project in progress.
As for parts, look here for advise or corvetteforum.com.
