Alright, so i am at a crossroads at what i should do. i either want to repaint my car or swap/rebuild the engine. the car has imperfections/dents/paint chips that bug the hell out of me. While my engine has high ass miles on it and it could be rebuilt/swapped and made faster.

i dunno what to do what yall think? if only i had enough money to do both!

I will tell you from experience, work on the motor. The paint and body is gonna be a never-ending story.

would you prefer your car run better so you can get around and not worry about it breaking down or have a nice paint job and then it break down?

I say motor then paint. that way you won't accidentally mess up the paint installing a new engine.

i say swap... you dont want a clean car to break down on the side of the high way or anywhere else.. paint can wait, it's looks really good to me as it is...

i say paint..... if you have a piece of shit that runs like a raped ape..... its still a piece of shit.

but if you have a clean ass car that broke down...... its a "project".

anyways to be honest its rare to see a nice paint job on a car..... im not talkin about a car with no scratches dent or dings. im talking paint so god damn smooth and shiney youll get people askin you if that shits kandy when its not. No orange peel. its been wet sanded and polished all over to include bumpers and mirrors.

im not gonna lie ive been a long time advocate for go before show.... but..... if your deciding between dumping time and money into a swap over a good paint job, if my vote counts get the paint.
