A massive project, but worth doing?
Absolutely worth doing.
Welcome aboard, glad you found us.
The fact that you are here and asking the question gives the answer.
You can start by hitting all the parts that come apart with WD-40 but don't let it sit on whats left of the paint, then disassemble carefully, don't throw anything away even if broken or useless. You may need them to help source new ones.
Steel parts can be soaked in Evaporust to get them cleaned up.
You have a chance to be the guy that you couldn't find on the internet, priceless.
