Fantastic thread!! I'm getting ready to do the same thing with a 95 Trek 730 that I bought new, way back when. I'm starting with a complete bike and will likely keep a few components (ie, deraillers, brakes, handlebar) unless a mechanic says I need to replace them but wheels, crankset, cassette, shifters, seat post, stem and saddle will all get replaced. I also plan to get the frameset powdercoated, either a bluish-gray or dark orange. I have to get the bike back from my parent's house but I can't wait to start the project and get back to riding steel!
