If its not too late stick labels on everything and use freezer bags to store screws/nuts/bolts/clips etc. They come with ties and white boxes to label them, ideal.
Also make lots of notes although with a digital cameras its probably just as easy to take lots of pics these days.
Isn?t it amazing how much space all the stuff takes up when its not all fastened together in a MK1 shape.
Keep us informed of progress

repair panels are easy to get!
:dontknow: carbs please shed some light on this as im going crazy trying to find the panels, have spoke to crazyquiff and looks like he can sort most of them out. Need scuttle repair, rear arches, wing mount rail.
the car has been sat in a garage for 5 years, its only now that its been exposed to the elements, gonna sort a car cover out.

Also you may want to leave it to last as you want to keep the car mobile if you are geting the body work done elseware.
Looks like you got a lot of rust to deal with.
