Default any good websites/books on car painting basics?

I'm really wanting to eventually do my own bodywork and paint, but haven't had any kind of instruction or help so far to get me motivated into trying any of my own.
I have come to a point where I feel completely comfortable doing anything mechanically related, but painting, I'm just nervous about.
Just wondering if there were any VERY basic books or websites for a VERY un-knowledgable guy to get started in the right direction on bodywork and painting.
I realize that it takes a ton of practice, and good equipment to get a great quality job, but you gotta start somewhere right?
I think I could eventually be a pretty good painter with the right instruction.

Anyone have any ideas on where to look, or have any spare body panels I can practice on?

thanks,

-Drew
