Default Another newbie here....

Hey guys and gals! Just wanted to take a minute and introduce myself. I'm Daniel. I'm currently building a 69K5 4x4 with a LQ4 6.0. It's my first time on this site and first time doing this! I'm still learning to navigate on here, but a little about what I want out of my build. I want dependability. I'm not looking for high horse power or anything. I want to be able to jump in and head to the beach or mountains without having any issues. I want to have a decent cam and good sound. I'd like to be able to pull my car trailer with it if I need to. I know its gonna be a lot to learn but I'm willing to put the time in and make sure the build is done right. My budget for the entire truck is $10k. All the metal work is mostly done. It's not a frame off restoration by any means, but it will be a nice driver. I'm thinking $4-6k to finish the paint and body, which leaves me with roughly $4k to finish the motor, wiring and tune. I've already purchased the motor and harness, so that expense is out of the way. I'm open to all opinion's and advise so feel free to chime in! Thanks for your time!
