I did a frame off on my 72 vert doing everything myself within 2 1/2 years. I did have help with the engine rebuild. My paint had lots of orange peel that sanded and buffed nicely. I have about 3 grand into the paint, but it is Lamborghini orange pearl ($1600/gallon) and cleared. I did this while working full-time. I'm a hobbyist and this is my fourth time painting a car of my own. None came out perfect without a little extra work. But, the cost was worth it.
