Years back my dad had a body shop and we did up our first cars there ,thats where i picked up some of the knowledge that helps me out on stuff like this ,never really did much spray work though was always strip and fit or panel work ,i think the good thing about not being in the trade is that it helps it become more of a hobby when im doing it (if you know what i mean)

Top work,looks like ford made it that way.Now what you mean about working on cars for a living then doing your own in sparetime,but then there are advantages of working in a bodyshop and looking after a car like ours.Strip and fit all day then come home and strip and fit mine,but for free..LOL..
