My name is Matt. I'm live in Salt Lake City Utah. I ended up at this forum in search of some help. I know someone who made the mistake of paying a person up from a sizeable amount of money to change the paint color of an already restored 1959 MK1. Well the guy completely took the car apart inside and out. Took the doors off, hood and trunk as well. Then he bailed with the money. So I was asked if I could paint the car and reassemble the car. I have painted a few cars and trucks in my day so that will be the easy part. Though I'm fairly mechanically inclined most of my work has been on Chevy classics. But since I did not disassemble this car Its been difficult figureing it out because nothing was sorted, labeled or anything. I hope to find some answers here.

 

Oh, Matt, what a Terrible thing to happen!!
Hopefully you can find reconstruction help in here.
