The cool thing about the videos is that every time I watched them (and I did so many times), I learned something new. It helps to work on the car awhile, then go review the video that covers what you just did. There are things in there that you won't realize are important until you've got the experience of trying it yourself, then it will make sense. Thanks for the kind words -- I wasn't really looking for praise (although it's much appreciated) -- the point was that I was a 100% newbie. Everything I did on that car that had anything to do with body work and paint was the first time I'd attempted it. The biggest thing is the time investment - there aren't any shortcuts. You've just got to be willing to put the time in and do it right, and when you do make a mistake (I made plenty) you've got to be willing to back up, fix it, and start again.
