Thanks for your reply. I have taken baby steps up to this point. Car hadn't run in 4-5 years when I got it. Main focus was to get it running and mechanically sound (enough anyway). Main thing remaining there is to rebuild the power brake vacuum booster. Ordered after market, but keeps getting delayed- guessing it comes out of China? So, I am going to have the original rebuilt. Finally, after more than a year, I have sent it to get body and paint. Since it is there, I am trying to replace what I can that makes sense while it is there. Is too much $ at one time, but still less now since so much is dismantled. Ball joints, bushings, tie rods, and idle arms yet to come when necessary. Wish I had the tooling and know-how to do those myself and save some $!
