So I went to the Goodguys in Columbus and ended up coming home with a SoCal frame. I have been waiting to start my roadster project for many years now. This will be my first build, I know my way around cars, but I am not sure where to start.

1. Is there any specific reading material that you recommend I start with that will help me along.
2. Where is the best place to find out options available for components (suspension, rear end, etc.).
3. I know I could build the car out of the SoCal catalog, but to keep my cost down I would like to get all the parts I can used. Where can I find out what parts to look for.
4. What other vendors have good components.

Thanks for any help, and I'm sure there will be many more questions to come.
