here is a little more of my schedule when working on one. but like the other guy says, time and budget can dictate!! I pull the eng/trans. whether it goes to machine shop or w. at very least i will clean it, new gaskets, trans front seal, pull the heads and check for needed work there. a good time to undate the cam. set aside. time to rebuild trans if bad. set aside.
remove all outer paint. patch panel time, treat pitted metal with Ospho. pull interior, s et aside or send to upholstery shop. fix obvious floor rust. treat . clean inside of doors, like the guy said, they rust from inside.

rotesserie makes a big difference what you can do to the undersie of floor!

while eng oput, rebuild bront end and brake work. replace bad brake/ fuel lines. buy NEW gas tank and sender.

source radiator or make sure your old one is up to the job. obtain all new hoses, carb kit, belts, electrical under hood components. get shocks.

the engine compartment, door jams, inside trunk, I do first, clean treat epoxy prime, paint. if you send it out just writ e the guy a BIG check!!?? LOL!!

after its painted, then you are looking at reassemble. engine v=back in from bottom or top. you pulled the k member? all this makes a difference. changing t bar?? rear springs? rear end???
check out inside under dash wiring. it is old. replace if needed. grease speedo cable, update VR setup if desired?

i nterior paint? check out the factory paint Ditzler sheet ot see wha it should be painted

after painted the int goes back in. carpet, door panels? seats recovered? headliner BEFORE seats and carpet back.... package tray...... ( wher e does it end???)

rear end grease? engine primed? all fluids in????

fire up the sucker!!????? how many steps did I leave out????

oh yea, go to the bank and hock the wife's jewels!??????
