done right typically requires a complete tear down, a complete sand/soda blast, an initial etch prime, car on rotissere for rust repair and body work, then paint. seems sending all hardware out for plating is nice, and painting all loose suspension parts is nice too.

you should expect to be replacing all,
bushings
bearings
rotors
calipers
cables
shocks
struts
spings
fuel lines
fuse box
installing front sway bar
refresh fuel tank from internal rust
tires

oh, there is the motor and interior, yikes $$$

here is one of my favorite build threads - note lack of rust
