2 paint or not to paint

If you do end up painting it, take DETAILED pictures of the car as it is now, prior to any paint or bodywork. And then take MORE detailed pics of the bodywork and paint in progress. Use a GOOD camera with attention to detail, INCLUDING close up pictures of all the normal trouble spots. Any future buyer / owner would like to have them, and the car would be worth more to a potential buyer, so more cash in your pocket.

Recent paint on a car for sale is a huge red flag for me, as it takes a few years to see if there are going to be problems with the paint and body.
