    You have your Buick, what is the next step? Save up money? Start rubbing elbows with a bank manager to approve a loan? Jumping out to car shows and repeating your story to anyone who will listen?
    How do you pick a garage? How do you get the ball rolling, now is your chance to educate us wet behind the ears folks!

    you take it one piece at a time. dont try to tackle the whole car at once. focus on only doing one thing, or else you can get overwhelmed.
    Even if its a rotisserie, focus on getting the motor out first, then the front clip etc. not "oh I need this whole thing up on a rotisserie"
    it helps you feel more accomplished, and closer to your ultimate goal for the car

    well, what do you want to do with your car? from your pictures you'll need all new sheet metal. consider a donor body for your car. i had my X rear clipped a few years back and it's now rust free. original sheet metal doesn't mean anything to me if it's full of rust. good luck with it.

    Your car has plenty of rust, but is a valuable car and has great history. If you had the bucks (or that banker friend) I would consider a complete restoration even if you plan to drive it all the time.
