My only comment is on step 2 with the wire wheel. All non engine, non trans parts can be better restored with an industrial sandblaster. I did the body/frame of a 1952 Studebaker coupe and the savings in time with a wire wheel was far better than the cost of the sand blasting. Also provides a better substrate to take primer than wire wheel finish. Of course, first you would use paint remover and a scraper for the easy stuff. For the engine and trans, it's dangerous to use a sand blaster. Hard to keep the engine sealed up, unless you are going to go for a complete rebuild of both, I would just paint strip, then wire wheel those.
