, take lots of pictures and bag and tag everything.
,= VERY IMPORTANT...because everybody takes things apart ,thinking "I remember where this goes"...then it takes longer than expected and you forget...plus you wont find everything...if its bagged, marked you know what it is and where it goes (pics help here) I`d suggest , not only being a member here and ask, but see if you can join a local group....preferrably FGFs, but for 'general' info, other car clubs may work too....but look for local FGFers, maybe find them on here!??
but also , its important to know what you want out of this car...dont go way overboard on your first car....be prepared it will take lots longer than you expect! if you think 6 mo it will be 18, if you think 2 yrs it will be 5-6 most likely. Life happens in the middle of it!
mine was in driveable condition...had been 'restored' 7 yrs before ,but trashed out since...I did a 'running resto' on it , thought it would be 6 months...but took 6 yrs, BUT I had it driveable all that time ,so I could enjoy it 'during'....
