A couple of questions:
1.) How did you decide which order to replace everything?
2.) From your pics it looks like you just cut out all of the bad areas and then trimmed the patch pieces to fit, but my question is, with so much metal cut away, how did you line everything up?

Thanks for the kind words! Once you get into it, it won't be as bad as you think. Patience and take your time.
As for the order of replacement, it was pretty much dictated by the pieces I needed to replace. Before making your first cut, take several measurements so that you have a reference of where the new parts need to be. The more measurements the better. Hopefully that helps, but if you have more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,
Mike
