Paint and bodywork

I'm lucky. Old, woreout and can do my own body/paint as good or not as good, as I want.
I have said car because I want it, I will drive it, I will try to take care of it... but I know it will never stay as nice (or not nice) as when I finished it. A scratch, gravel peck, door ding, some kid outs his snotty little hands on it!!!! Time!
I also know one day I will sell it (or the estate! ) and the buyer will never want to pay for a flawless paint job ($ and time), or all the total $ i put in it anyway! and.... because I have no desire to have the $ in such a high end "rare" model, and why would I want to put all the $ and work in it just so the next guy can brag how he screwed the old guy! :thumbsup: :BangHead: :steering:
