Message	I have a 92TT in good condition in Cherry Red. I have always admired Aztec Red. My question: Would it be better to buy an Aztec Red NA in good condition (@4,500 USD) and exchange engine, etc, with my TT or to paint my TT. I look at doors, door jams, engine compartment, fuel hatch, hood, mirrors, and hatch, and think this is going to be really expensive to paint (I am just out of the hospital and am not about to do the prep work myself). Any thoughts?? BTW I am in the Washington, D.C. area (hello Bernie).
