Well Jason,

If you want a do it yourself job that doesn't require a roller and brush - in addition to the engine hoist and stand listed in the thread below - I have a fairly good collection of bodyworking and painting tools that you are welcome to borrow.

It may not end up being a show quality job for your first effort but it will be a lot better than faux marble from Lowes.

I have done the bodywork on and painted somewhere around five cars. Number 4 was a 911 to 930 steel conversion in black. Somewhere around a million hours later it was straight as glass. Number 5 was a 65 Shelby GT350 clone in metallic Blue / White. That was my first basecoat / clearcoat / metallic / striped car.

All were painted in my garage - I can just hear the comments coming now about that!!!!!!!!

No Mike, I did not live in a Homeowners association regulated neighborhood.

A racecar - pece of cake.

Jeff
