So, your all set up, the car is in your clutches and you're raring to begin....

STOP!!

Seriously, stop.

You need a plan, on paper. Yes, i'm serious.
Please don't just dive in willy-nilly and expect it to all go swimmingly. It wont, trust me.
You have to write down, print up, log a plan of action with steps and everything. Yeah, I know, bummer ,, right? No, it doesn't have to be.
having a plan does several things at once for you. It helps you see where your going monetarily. It helps you realize things you may not have thought of that will cost money and time later. It gives you achievable goals so this doesn't end up as yet another failed project that will sit around gathering dust and making you feel bad.
It gives you an idea of how freaking long this thing will be in your life. It's a checklist of parts and pieces you will need to buy, and ones you no longer need and can sell for fun and profit...lol.

So, you've sat down and made a plan and have your ducks in a row now, right?
Okay, good job, let's begin.

Your car should be sitting in what ever space you have set aside for it to be living in for years to come. Once you pull it apart you aint movin it. Or at least your not going to WANT to move it many times.
You need plastic bags, ziplock freezer bags work well, bins to put them in, boxes and containers of various sizes to stash parts and pieces in for later. Several black permanent markers and cards that you can write legibly on concerning these parts so that years from now you can pick up that card and still read it. lol.
Don't just write it on the bag. If you don't print legibly have someone who does do the scribbling. please.
Leave the wheels and tires for last.
Start at the top. pull the trim from around the windows & roof rails. If you have never done this, or any other operation learn how BEFORE you place your mule skinners on that delicate aluminum trim and screw it up. Chances are it's not a reproduced part and it's expensive to replace IF you can even locate another one.
Use the right toll correctly to remove it and don't just toss it in a pile. Wrap it in paper or plastic and set aside carefully in a safe dry place. Place the attaching hardware in a ziplock bag, label it, write the card, put the card in the damn bag...lol.. and put the bag with the part, connected TO THE PART not just adjacent.
