74 power wagon dream truck...

That sounds like a plan, no need to do expensive paint on the floor and underside of the cab.
Buy good paint for the exterior, I made the mistake once by painting my 71 D-100 with cheap paint, I had to constantly wax it to keep it shining.
Before you shoot the exterior I would upgrade to a better compressor, something around 3 hp 20 gal tank is enough to spray with.
Make sure it is a belt driven one, the one I am using I bought at tractor supply ~ $350, plumbed and extra 30 gallon tank with it so plenty of reserve to paint with.
Just make sure you plumb in a good water catch.
The plan has always been to take it somewhere for the exterior and the upper interior of the cab to be body worked and painted..
Of course for a one or two time deal I can always rent a very large gas powered compressor for the day. Also was watching an episode of graveyard cars last night where they talked about an inflatable paint booth. It blew my mind LOL.. the possibilities... I looked them up and they're about $1,000 which is about how much I have saved so far for a paint job and body work...
