Welcome Chris,

You have a great project on your hands. And congrats in keeping it in the family, that is the way it should be. Here are some basic rules that I have learn (some the hard way):

1-Join a local club (done) Make sure you visit the National next month in Puyallup.
2-NEVER throw anything away.
3-Get Les Andrews book as there are no manuals out there except the Ford service bulletins.
4-Talk to people here and in the clubs
5-Since you are starting with a project take you time, take LOTS and LOTS of pictures. Figure out what you are going to do with it (standard or deluxe).
6-Enjoy the process and then when you are done drive her wheels off.

Hope these help.

Mike
