I am planning to repaint my 1975 1.8 in it's original Malaga Red this summer. I have the means and ability to do the body work myself, but do not have the equipment to spray the top coat of paint. I can do everything up to and including spraying the car with primer, just not the top coat of paint.

Any recommendations for a paint shop in San Diego that could guide me on what products to use for the bodywork (filler, primer, etc) and then spray the top coat for me? I am on a college budget so I am trying to do as much of the work as possible myself to keep the cost down.

Would anyone who has had a good paint job done in TJ have a specific shop they would recommend? Who painted that green 914? It looks pretty decent in the picture, and that's all I'm really looking for; a good driver quality paint job that will last awhile. I have a couple of friends that live in TJ, so if I could find a trustworthy shop the logistics of getting the car down there to be painted should be no problem.

I'm still interested in body shops in SD too if anyone has a recommendation.
