I have an overall. I dont really need to put it on paper.... I change my mind about stuff frequently, so that would get old. Plus I buy new things and makes double work for me, no big deal. I dont care how long it takes me. After I complete all this the car may come apart for body work anyway.

I just know when I did my build, my photographic memory served me well but the list is what kept me sane. Felt good checking stuff off the list too.
So what's next for you to do?

I dont double check EVERYTHING, just key things. Right now I can tell you most of the stuff I havent done or things that are only finger tight at the moment.
After I do the spindles, bead blast my calipers, paint them and then reassemble them as I should be ordering my wheels in the next few weeks. And I want to get the car to "roller" status so it isnt necessarily trapped in the garage anymore. I would like to roll the car out and sweep the floor real well. With all the grinding and leaves the floor has a lot of crap on it.
After that is put my V bands on the headers, weld the 45 degree bends to longer pieces of stainless to replace the existing mild steel pieces of the exhaust so I can put the other side of the V bands on that and finish the exhaust. After that, the interior needs to come out and I think I am going to put the subframe connectors in the car while the interior is out for the new AAW wiring harness.

I have a detailed spreadsheet with all the things I have bought. I don't have labor on there though.
