Do as much of the work as you can. You may not get the same results as a pro but you'll save a ton of money, know the car inside out and have pride in it when you finally finish it and get it on the road. Most of the experts on this Board have been where you're going and are generous with their advice. All you need are some good tools, a strong back (or a willing helper) and the workshop manual. If in doubt, farm it out - like the paint and bodywork and internal engine and gearbox stuff unless you're experienced or want to learn by making mistakes - the only true teacher. Good luck and keep posting.
If you have an itch scratch it. I am finishing a TR-3 restoration right now of my very first car (yes I kept it 48 years). Guess what I am then going to start, another TR-3 restoration. I now have 3 in total. I am 65. These are about as simple a car as you could ask for in a first tiime restoration. They are basically erector sets. They bolt apart and bolt together. I can't think of a part that is not available. It will be easier now that a few years from now! GO!
One thing you absolutely do not want to do and that is be laying there in a casket and have your kids say Dad always wanted to restore a car, I sure wish he had of...............you will also find tremendous knowledge and help on this forum.
