Default whats your hardest car to paint

theres many kinds of body styles of cars all with their own contours that make painting them a little different.ive been told by several painters through time that a vw bug was one of their hardest to do because of the rounded panels.
ive done a few and actually found they were actually interesting to do.
what style auto has been a pain or fun for you to do
i do know after 12 gallons of paint on our latest truck,,that ranks one of my worse ones

The VW Bug is the classic pain-in-the-butt to spray. Like painting a ball, I've been told.
Personally, the inside of any truck cab or bed ranks high on my list. It's like spraying yourself in the face. Several times.

I would agree with the VW bug if it is still together,they are not too bad if they are taken apart.

Insides of race cars with rollcages already installed...but I really hate '68-7? Corvettes with the tunnel back window...and they're made out of pure evil called fiberglass...
