We have our 53 ready for paint. It is in pieces now with the whole front end apart and the doors off, all glass out and the rear fenders off. For those of you that painted this way how difficult was it to be put back together again without scratching it all up. We are going to do a dry run today of re-installing the front sheet metal to see how hard that is to do. I guess we could pull the engine, so that the painter can paint the engine compartment with the front sheet metal on? I know putting the hood back on will be tough, but we can't get around that no matter which way we go. Any suggestions from those of you who have painted this way?
