What Sequence is First!
Im in the process of Complete restoration of my car and would like to know in what order shall I perform this process. I have the engine, transmission and underbody taken care of. Now that I'm moving on to the Exterior and Interior I dont know what direction to start First.
1. Paint Body- include door jams
2. Replace all weatherstripping
3. Restore Interior
Please give an explanation of each order of precedence and why one should be perform before the other.
Thanks in Advance...

I'd remove all the weather stripping and interior and paint, that way you will get a nice paint job where pretty much everything is painted and you don't have to worry about getting paint on the interior pieces.
Next I'd say Interior, you can leave the weather stripping until the paint has had more time to cure. When the interior is done, the paint should be set enough to install the weather stripping.
hope this helps!
