There are many ways to organise the work. On a restoration I have
started, I have made a chart of each of the car's major components
(i.e. electrical, suspension, interior, etc), breaking each
category down into separate parts, with headings
"dismantled" "cleaned" "inspected" "work to be done" "reassembled"

Yes to all the above, if you want the best result.
If you go to http://www.autorestorer.com there are several of
people's projects there. Some of them are highly organised and you
can use their ideas to plan your own restoration.
