After you have all your mechanical work done and are starting on sheet metal repair and painting you might want to pick up a copy of book" Revive Your Ride ,Secrets from a Body and Paint Restoration Pro" by Larry Lyles.
Came out in 2006 and has a lots of info and helpful details from Sheet metal, paint types,paint guns and laying down primers, basecoats and clears.
Lots of color pics and addressing frequently asked questions.
The good part is Amazon has lots of these in good condition as used books for around $12.00. ($28.00 new)
A good reference book.
