Start there, and then start going through the build threads here.

This one is over 100 pages: https://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/989493-my-low-budget-dream-car-build.html

There are also bodywork and engine rebuild forums here.

That's an amazing thread. Still, he's done a lot of customization stuff that I have no interest in doing. For me the "naive" goal is really to do a "take it all apart, replace anything dead, clean and/or repaint/rework the rest, put it back together". Essentially 1-1 replacement. As original as possible.

Not so much for purposes of purity...more that I know all too well that "just changing this one thing" usually cascades into a million and a half other changes that turned out to be necessary because of that one thing.

Circumstances forced that car to stand still for a decade. Un turned over. Unstarted. Un everything.
