  Totally clueless on those year cars but I am sure there are Ford service books on the mech stuff . Paint charts are available . Interior stuff I would start with Lebaron Bonney and request info and samples of what they have for your car . They usually supply directions with their kits . Talking to an old upholstery shop may help also .

  Headlight aiming is covered in the Owner's manual.

Brake systems are covered in the reprint of the 39-48 Canadian shop manual (V-222) and in Motors manual.

Headliner installation instructions came with my headliner.
