I understand your vehicle is under a tarp outside?

I might have said this earlier: I have experience from several car resto's, and several motor bikes.
I started by restoring a couple of bikes, then went on to cars.
( soon I will start the resto of my motorcycle that is a Jawa 175cc Super Sport from 1934).

I have started all the restos by first tackling the Chassis and rust. Then body work, driveline and the interior last.
While I stored/worked on the cars, I had them on blocks.

Useful changes to the car are:
New more efficient rad fans, with a manual override
Edelbrock carbs ( plus other Edelbrock treatment of the engine, if you like more BHP)

Seat belts in the back
Front seats with a head rest
Main cut off switch for the battery, accesible in the drivers footwell
