That's the type of thing I'm trying to avoid, although I was thinking more
about overspray. The only painting I want done with the body on the frame
is the hood stripe. Good luck finalizing your car!

still in the throes of an overly extended restoration, i will tell you this.
we did the body, engine, suspension, etc, and then sent the car off to
paint. years and 3 paint shops later the car is still unfinished in my
garage, and, the once beautiful frame, engine, etc are covered in layers and
layers of sanding dust.
i highly recommend doing all the bodywork first, then mate it when the
engine/frame/suspension is done. you will save yourself much cleaning, and,
if your luck is as bad as mine, you won't have to hope that you correctly
prepared for storage the engine that was built 5 years ago.
