91 Suburban 2500 restoration

Hi All, Had a family member gift a '91 Suburban 2500 to me today. The overall shape great but it sat for the past 15 years in So Cal heat. Paint is gone, some engine harness wires chewed through, and could use some love. Fully loaded with a 454 on a factory new 80e Trans. Some other issues...
