I would restore some components separate from the car. You can pick up some front control arms and all the steering components, rebuild, detail, plate and paint them. You'll get a good feel on whats involved, and your car will still be movable/drivable.
Its very easy to take it all apart and think your making progress, its getting it back together thats has all the issues. Also make up a spreadsheet lists all the parts and the costs of rebuilding and replacing those parts.
