[QUOTE="miss.mod.50, post: 1184973, member: 18380"] When i got into mine i started with a list of things that i KNOW are effed up, damaged, or about to fail....then go from there. Just depends on the route you want to go with the car...show, race, DD? Also depends on condition of the car. Mine, I hit all 3 that needed redone and chose to go with this order....... interior, engine, then body. I'm having the interior done and ready to go first - nothing sucks more than having a nice fresh motor sitting in the car ready to fire and you're stuck elbow deep in wire repair, replacing carpet, or have the dash out. Then I do the body last because i tend to always scratch or nick SOMETHING while putting a motor in, would rather not have it on new paint. just my .02 [/QUOTE]
