I am getting ready to take on a huge project of restoring a 65 mustang
fastback. The car has been in my family for 30 yrs. It basically
needs every body panel replaced (floors, trunk, quarters, front end,
frame rails, etc.). When I say every panel, I'm not joking. So... I'm
looking for a GOOD book or diagram or training videos, etc. that will
teach me where to start, i.e. which order to begin replacing body
panels so I don't waste time or money. Is anyone aware of any such
material??? Thanks. Jon

Every body panel? Sounds suicidal, or masochistic at the very least.
Seriously, this does sound like a project for Chip Foose and the
Overhaulin' crew, who are more apt to go find a donor body rather than
panels. Your description would indicate that there is practically
nothing left to save. Use it for a donor and go get something you can
work with.
