Default 1913 Trojan Project... Help!

I recently returned from an amazing South Texas quail hunt, where I borrowed a friends Winchester Parker reproduction. This jogged my memory and I remembered that I had an old unstocked Trojan that I picked up about 20+ years ago from a friend. I had given it to my dad thinking he would do something with it, When I returned I found that he stuck it in his safe, and it has been sitting there. Well, I have spent several days reading old threads and trying to put together a plan. I have a Parker Trojan 12 Ga., 30 inch barrels, serial no. 164537. (See attached pics... Better ones coming) The gun is in great condition in my opinion. Very tight. One small spot of bluing missing, no rust or pitting on the exterior whatsoever (Although the internals show need of cleaning up). Action opens easily, but is very solid and tight, and gun fires as it should. Internal safety bar or mechanism missing and has to be replaced. Opinions for restoration? Ideas? My thoughts are to turn this into an english stocked upland gun... (I can hear the groans and gnashing of teeth). Help!
