[Roadsters] Restoring my first roadster

[Donovan]

Seems like Rich beat me to it. 

My roadster has been stored in my garage for the last several years. I drove
it until I couldn't drive it anymore. Now I am all excited about restoring
it, especially after joining this group and seeing all the nice looking
roadsters out there. I am not sure what year my roadster is, but I think it
is a 1969 Datsun 2000. It needs body, interior and some engine work. I did
not store it on blocks and neglected to start it regularly. So who knows
what I am in for. 

Where do I start?

Ideally, I would love to have someone start working on in the fall or winter
months. I live in Toronto Canada. 
Does anyone know of a good auto body shop out here? Would any of you
recommend letting someone work on it on the side? I mean someone who works
fulltime but has spare time to work on it. Or should I just send it to a
body shop? I would love to have it on the road my Spring 2009. 

Your feedback would be appreciated. 
I have attached an old photo to give you an idea of what it used to look
like unrestored.

Hi All!
Anybody have any good steps to follow on restoring a datsun roadster? How
about pictures or websites? This will be my first and thought I would
through this out to all the experience on this list. I hope I don't ask too
many questions that have already been asked.
Thanks in advance.
Rich
