I'm following this thread.

I hope to do the bodywork and paint on my car, at least that's the plan and since I fully expect to break things and being able to fix things is good. I hope to keep paint and body as cheap as possible. I hear about $10k + paint jobs - jeeesh, that would buy half of a new motor or a replacement body, a bunch of suspension pieces and a wheel or two.

Not being a "paint" guy, I wonder what's wrong with a fine nape roller and a gallon or two of latex. I do like the comment on cutting the seams and a bit of matching red for the "patina" effect.

Welcome to Saturday morning. Maybe it's the 12th cup of coffee.
