Welcome Ron. I agree with Brett. Get the car in running/stoping condition first. This way you can enjoy it while you fix it. Many of the people on this board have "rolling restos" that have been in progress for years, decades, etc... Mine is only going on 2 years so Im ok First stop IMHO is to learn what you can about your car or cars in general. If you want to get your car back up and running you will have to learn quite a bit first to be able to properly ID what is right vs wrong. If you have basic automotive know how you can get going right now. If not, find a buddy that does and feed him food/beer for payment Make a list of what the car has, doesnt have, needs, is broke, wrong, ETC>... Here is a list of things that I came up with a while ago. If you can answer all these questions you will be in good shape and will know what you have in front of you. /forums/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=26;t=000005#000000
After that, well, I would say you take care of all the mechanical items before you try and make her look good. Looking good is nice, but you can die or kill others if you neglect the mechanical issues.
This is by far the best place for FGF info, so feel free to ask
