First Time Restoration 65 Galaxie 500 XL 2D Hardtop

Hey, I just purchased a 65 Galaxie 500 XL. Its got a factory 4 speed manual transmission, 390 eng, and the body is in pretty decent shape besides a little rust on the upper left fender. The previous owner had just recently replaced the front windsheild, and put new brakes, brakelines, and tires on it. My question is, where do i start the restoration process? I think i'm going to redo the exhaust, and headers, and eventually repaint, but its all pretty overwhelming since i've never done this before.

Also, i would also like to know what you guys think this car was worth, so i have an idea if i got ripped off or not. Any help is good help!
