If given the choice;

Always paint the car in pieces, but make sure the body shop puts the fenders 
on the car to line up those seams between the door and the fenders and the 
hood and the fenders BEFORE it's painted: not to mention the fit between the 
doors and the rear quaraters: and last but certainly not least, make sure 
they adjust the fit between those freshly chrome plated headlight rings and 
your front fenders. You would be surprised how much material the chromer can 
remove while polishing those things.
These "little" adjustments" will make a world of differance when you put the 
car back together. (also keeps the finger pointing to a minimum when your 
done!)


Good Luck, and I hope you post the pics so we can see your progress!
