Is your awesome Mustang...not so awesome?
#1
I have seen this play out a lot:
Someone acquires the classic Mustang of thier dreams, but the honeymoon is over quickly because the car does not function like a dream. So it will sit more than it should, and you slowly lose interest in it...and the project stalls.

I recommend getting the mechanical woes fixed before cosmetic stuff: suspension especially, and steering.
A car that is fun to drive will encourage you to fix up the rest of it quicker.

Fixing cosmetic stuff on a car that doesn't drive well can kill your enthusiasm for the project.
