Part out or sell as project?

I understand that, I have decided to do my body and paint myself. It is a long process, but patience will get me there. I chose to go this route for similar reasons. I have a friend who paid ten grand for paint and body work on a Camaro. It is a very nice paint job, but the car still isn't finished. Missing trim pieces here and there. I was there picking the body work apart, it isn't perfect, and I have an eye for when things aren't lined up properly. My friend was upset that I noticed the imperfections after paying all that $$$. Point is, if its going to be screwed up , may as well do it yourself and not pay through the nose. My best experience with a auto paint body guy was getting a motorcycle tank sprayed. It still took a couple of months.
