Well,

I have Katrina cleaned to the point of being ready for the minor body work and a paint job.

I got the engine running really nice, but it isnt pretty.  Should I pull the engine, repaint the engine and do it all?

I am on a limited budget, but want to do it correctly, and I just dont feel like I have spoken to the right shop or person yet.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can get accurate information and get Katrina back to where she should be.

Thanks,

Thom

Its not necessary to do every thing at once. You could pull the engine and paint that and the engine bay. You can seal that area off when it comes time to paint the exterior panels.

Yes, this forum is a good start. The other option is to go down to your local paint supplier. Go there in the afternoons so they could spend some quality time answering your questions.
