Default '35 ford, convert to dash push button start

Planning on installing a low voltage button for dash mount start switch and will use with ford electro-solenoid to kick the starter. Please make comments on my idea for the install.
1- I'm thinking about leaving the foot pedal switch in place for original look. It's shot but is clean and looks good.
2- Will pull the cable connected to the starter peddle terminal and move to the opposite terminal where the battery and harness wires are.
3 - Will disconnect the cable at the starter motor and connect a short cable from the starter to the correct solenoid terminal and connect the other terminal on the solenoid to the end of the cable which was connected to the starter. Solenoid will mount to firewall above starter motor.
4 - Run low voltage wiring to switch mounted in dash.
5 - connect battery and push button to turn engine over.

??? What are your thoughts.
