I have never done a "full resto" paint job. I will be painting everything on the challenger and the car will be getting blasted soon. My main question is what does everyone prefer to paint first? I am assuming trunk, engine bay, interior, and inside of doors at the same time and then fit fenders and spray the outside? Still up in the air if I will be painting the underside or using some sort of undercoating. I will be doing this at home so any input is appreciated!

Thanks,

Josh

before even thinking of paint, your first step is bodywork/assy/panel alignment/priming and lots of blocking, then you can disassemble, jamb, re-assemble/align, then paint the entire body

Yeah I am good with everything prior. Just wanted to know what is the typical procedure when actually painting the car. I am assuming when you say "jamb" you possibly mean interior, door jambs and trunk etc?

underside of car interior trunk fire wall and snout, trim out doors fenders header hood ect, assemble align everything and paint. I prefer to leave it assembled once everything is aligned.

Sounds right to me... how I did mine and other vehicles. I think I spent at least two days getting everything aligned before paint. I did not want to bother any thing after and neither did the factory.
