What to do next?
Im not sure where to go next with my vette. I have just finished rebuilding the suspension and differential, but other than that, nothing has been touched in my car. Im not sure what project to take up next. I need to get the thing painted, and Ive already bought new front/rear bumpers and weather stripping, and have money specififcally put aside for the paint/body work. But I also want to work under the hood, which is still stock. I have a guy waiting to do the paint job and was thinking of just going ahead with that. Id love to get her back on the road, and I figured doing paint b4 interior would be a good idea(the interior's completely stripped out too) For the engine im still tossing up rebuilding or swapping in a crate. Im pretty mechanically challenged but have friends to help and learn alot going along. So basically...Interior, Exterior, or Engine?
Thanks Again

Re: What to do next? (AZ76)
It seems like mechanical should come before paint but if the car is running now...and I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but since you asked...given the paint scheme dreamed up by the car's former owner, paint may next up on your list.
