I just found an NOS nose panel (valance? fills hood to grill area) in my parents attic if someone buys this.
....maybe I should buy this....lol
no stop stop, too many projects, wrong side of the country
I removed the Oz wheels, steering wheel and will be removing the moroso vacuum pump. It has rollers on it and I've been selling the extra engine parts separately. Willing to sell for $2500, pretty firm here as I have more money in the fiberglass and suspension then that( basically getting body and drivetrain free at this price). Willing to trade for 81-88 gbody cutlass.
This thread is the best collection of info and pictures of what was done.

It does run and drive, the current issue is that the fan clutch is not locking up so it heats up when not moving also it does not have a steering wheel anymore. I am willing to deliver up to a few hours away.
Aside from the fan and steering wheel I really would recommend going through the suspension and drivetrain fasteners before a longer trip( I did a 15-20min drive not too long ago). I torqued everything down during the rebuild/upgrade but I get paranoid about that kind of stuff.
