Ummm, why are you driving it and why are you telling a shop to paint it if you have no money? I can't believe you even have a car at that age. Why would you need to paint it now if you won't be able to drive it for several years? Better call that paint shop and cancel it before they start working on it.

I can/would help with all of those except for the cam, and that's solely because I don't know how to swap a cam/never done it before

Well I might just keep it as it is it has plenty enough power for me ( as long as it runs) and I rather have a car thats painted that runs with a few scratches from getting a cam installed then waiting to get my cam/headers installed and not have paint.

you are one weird kid. you do know that if they paint your car and you cant pay it then they will keep your car and sell it right?!! they have the right to do that. you shouldnt even be painting the thing until your ready to drive it.

Mods before bods. Seriously, a car that has serious performance but not so great of paint, is way better than a pretty car that's gonna get scratched up while you try to make engine improvements after you paid a bunch of money to have it look that nice. Besides, if it's not a looker, at least it can be a sleeper. Of course, both the paint and performance together are great for the total package appeal, but realistically, it's usually best to put the money towards making sure it runs like a champ continuously first. And if you really do think after a paint job that is as expensive as the one you're getting, that it's gonna get scratched when you install a cam, for the love of god, install the cam with the yucky paint. or at least protect the new paint with a tarp or something. Sorry, i'm done my rant. that's just two cents and the way I see it, but it's your car, and your money, not mine. Good luck.

While I have no idea what the hell is going on, point comes down to this..

How are you gunna pay these guys that are gunna paint your car? Did your mother take out a loan? Did you set up some sort of payment plan with the shop? Why did you buy parts for the car when you knew full well that it was gunna cost you X amount of dollars to paint it? I understand your ambition, but it sounds like you dont have a game plan here. You are just going about, doing what you want, with no goal or goals outside that you want to drive the car, which you wont really be able to do, legaly, till you are at least 16.

You shouldnt lie, especialy to us. We dont find it cool that an uninsured 14 year old is driving around with a car like that. We will help you out, but there is no need to lie like that.

My little brother is helping me with the 72, because one day Id like to give it to him as his bday present, and something for him to drive to school on nice days. It was that or buy a kit car hot rod, and have him drive that to school. Both would be bad ass. Good luck, but come up with a game plan first. No one will help you out if you know what you want to do.

Ok, now answer the question of how you plan on paying for this? I dont think you have a job as you cant get working papers till you are 15 or 16.
