Got some more progress made in the past few weeks.
Got the oil cooler lines finally run, that one project was a huge time sink as I had to re-evaluate and redo work repeatedly until I got to a functioning solution. Seems that everything that could have gone awry did, but finally now the lines are in, routed, and supported. Ended up with stainless/PTFE (Teflon) and AN fittings.
Got the exhaust pipe installed and welded up, cut a bit off the new and old to get the lengths right and had to weld it up in place as the cross members prevented me from snaking it out after it was tack welded to fully weld, so I did it up under the vehicle.
Got the fuel filters mounted and all the fuel supply and return hoses routed. Got the air conditioning compressor and brackets installed, and the serpentine belt put on. Put a jeep style steering shaft on with double universal joints, in lieu of the stock style with a rag joint on the steering box end. Put the steering column back in the vehicle to be able to steer it back out of the garage.
Anyway, some pictures.
