No. So yeah, he does what he want's no matter what I want or not...
In other words, if he doesn't feel like doing it, it means I can't do it... So yeah..
Oh, and I was told you have to pull the engine to paint the engine bay which would be ok to me, but my dad wouldn't have that..
Also, it has hail damage on the old hood, the roof, dents all over the side, a quarter size dent that went all the way down to the paint, some back yard body shop repairs that we need to fix...
So I did have to start the body stuff...

Again, I see no where in that post that says you have to listen to your Dad 24/7. I know he means well, but YOU have to remember it's YOUR car, not his. I've had to go through this where I was in the middle of my engine swap and I had to leave the garage I was working on it at. So I took it to my parents and that caused nothing but problems because every time I'd come over it was to work on the DSM, not to help them, etc...
I don't mean to sound like a dick, bottom line is you gotta do what you gotta do. If you wanted to paint the car a certain color and do it properly, you should've saved up more before tearing into the body work.
