I intend on having it very well documented so that again I can see how much work went into the car to get it restored.

I am sure, but thanks to Mike I am starting off with a pretty clean car. I only have one fender to look at repairing as well as swapping back the interior items back to the original grey and get rid of the tinting on the windows. Then I can have it painted. I may remove the doors and take them to my painter and have him go ahead and paint them while the car is down and in my garage waiting for me to come and revive it. Actually it's still running and all but I need to get the cooling system squared away. New hoses, thermostat as well as the radiator need to be replaced.
I need some shocks and struts too.
I am just glad that the car had the OEM steel wheels as well as the caps. I bought some used Gatorback off of Tom Mallett and the car will sport those wheels and tires for shows only. I am sure they would not hold up to a daily driving situation.
