Ok, completely understand. When someone starts in on a new hobby (or job, etc.), we don't know how much we don't know! I'll pick up the book referenced and read, then as I plan the removal, replacement, etc., I'll ask more specific questions. Thanks for your patience!
Any advice on removing exterior trim, weatherstripping, bumpers, emblems, to prepare for painting? I need to know correct tools, tips, etc so that I damage/ destroy as little as possible. 1983 280zx 2+2 Thx
