Re: paint
A couple hours? HA! If you only spend a couple hours prepping a car for paint, that will quite possibly be one of the worst paint jobs of all time.
What do you want out of the paint job? Do you want something that's going to look good enough for a car show? Look good enough at 30ft/30mph? It all depends on what you want out of it and how much time/money/effort you're willing to put into it.
Depending on the initial quality of the car and how often you can work on it (nights, weekends, etc.) a show quality job could take months to prep, if not longer.
