Just bought her. Body is in pretty good shape, paint is good, as well. Tiny bit of rust on rocker panels and trunk floor. Engine is strong. Transmission is good, but reverse comes and goes. Brakes (especially front) need attention. A/C blows, but not cold. Interior is not too good: seats in good condition, everything else will need minor to major attention. No radio. Wood trim needs replacing. As far as I can tell so far, all electrical stuff works just fine (except the clock, of course!).

My dilemma: where to start? I don't want to do a total restoration, i.e. a show-class car, but just want to restore it to weekend driver status. I'm an OK DIYer and can handle most of the "simple" stuff myself; major stuff I have to take to my garage.

I know it's hard to answer without more details, but where/how should I start? Inside the car? Outside the car? The tranny? Brakes? System by system? Front to back? Back to front? I'm so confused!?! Excited, but confused.
