Well, you can start by fixing up your suspension, interior, exterior, and a basic tune up and make sure everything is in good mechanical condition. Get some pics up.

download an FSM, read it love it.read all the tech forums have to offer, and become familiar with what everything is doing in your engine bay. and the first lesson i learned when i started working on cars : put it back together exactly how it came apart, so pay attention and put pieces in an order. you do that and your good with most basic stuff.

IMO take care of the rust first, clean her up and see what you got. Where ever you want to start is your choice... Where ever needs the most attention. Use your best judgment. Good luck and welcome
