Google "$50 paint job" there are tons of sites on the internet that discuss the fifty dollar paint job. In short, you mix Rustoleum with paint thinner and roll the car panel by panel with a hard foam roller. You wetsand between coats and buff when you get to coat number 10 or so. This is the third car I've done, it is VERY labor intensive and takes about two or three months, but it is super super cheap.

It is a blast to drive (I'd never driven one before).
It runs really hot, even with a 165 thermostat, the hood won't close so I will need to a scoop or something, and the worst news, the new pressure plate (and new clutch disc) can't hold against the flywheel when it revs past about 4,000 or so.
