Just picked up another project

I had been looking for an 870 Wingmaster project for a long time, they are out there, but I always seemed late to the party.
Anyway I bought this 1955 vintage Wingmaster for $150, I wasn't sure if I wanted to restore it as the finish was pretty decent (pardon the oily fingerprints)
then the Remington gods brought me this
it came to me in parts, I could only find a couple of minor things missing. It is a 1974 vintage with a pressed checkered walnut stocks.
I'll document the restoration here, for the record I am not a professional gunsmith, simply a student of the art
