Make sure you plan out what you want as a finished product before you start. I am in the second year of the 6 month updating of my truck. I started my restore to be a daily driver and when I got into it I changed my direction (very bad idea) and now I am in deep and need to redo or settle for less than I believe I will be happy with. I did take pictures prior to disassembly, bought an assembly manual and a service manual and put the bolts in containers and bigger parts in seperate boxes. If you don't think you will be happy with something don't do it because you won't be happy!!!! I also took pictures of the early stages and put them above my work bench so I remember how far I have come, so I don't get discouraged with how far I have to go.
