You covered a lot of ground with your video and instead of getting into anything specific, I will just say it is good that you took the time to go through what you know about the car and document.  It will be a good idea to break down things you want to address, into smaller projects and tackle one at a time based on certain criteria such as drivability, cost, and most importantly what makes you happy.  To me once you get basic drivability issues, such as running, braking, steering, suspension, exhaust out of the way, you can pick and choose. For me sometimes just the simplest fixes and upgrades have brought me the most pleasure.  For example I think I smiled almost as big when I got my washer pump working as when I first fired up my engine when I rebuilt it. I know you mentioned the car not running as good as it might should but I would go completely through basic tune-up maintenance before you start replacing major components. Sometimes, an adjustment of timing of timing, etc, rejetting a carb, can make a big difference. 
Finally, it looks like you have a fine 64 Cadillac. I've been tinkering and upgrading mine for 25 years now and sure have enjoyed the journey.
