I know what it's like to look at a huge project like this and be overwhelmed. I have to agree with those who advise you to start small and tackle one area at a time.
From what I've read in your posts (and seen in pictures), I think the previous owner keeping the car stored indoors all this time works in your favor. I saw NO rust to speak of!
My dad's '47 Clipper sat outside for 14 years after he traded it to a local car dealer, and that ruined it.
I have to think that sitting inside will be helpful in getting the car to run again. There's something to be said for protection from the elements!
I'm looking forward to reading about the engine turning over after it soaks for awhile....
