you have work cut out you. recommend upgrading joomla 2.5 because there few extensions built 3.0.
- backup site! in fact, recommend creating backup of current site, install somewhere else, migration on test site , when ready copy on live site. best way avoid screwing live site, if not familiar upgrading joomla.
- upgrade 1.0 1.5 using jupgrade; check extension developers see if have way migrate data new version. do, don't.
- upgrade 1.5 2.5 using jupgrade
- new template or modify 1 of default templates. existing template outdated it's not worth upgrading template; eg, html, css, , joomla code outdated.
see article overview of process. has links detailed upgrade docs.
