yeah, the only part I am finding hard is cleaning up the vent windows and getting them working properly. I bought new aftermarket door handles, the pass works ok....the drivers not at all...damnit!!
I forgot to say what we did..replaced both front floors, brand new front fenders, fiberglass hood, new windshield frame, and other metal replaced, we took our time and didnt bondo over any rust, we cut it our and replaced with metal.

Them vent windows are a pain when they dont work and sometimes hard to find. I have used the window locks for 10 bucks and locked them in place if you dont need them. Keep it going. D
