82SC--just put a stake in the ground and get it sprayed. I understand jitters, but it's not like you're trying to decide if you want to paint your newly acquired Countach purple or lime green. Both colors are cool, and regardless of which way you were leaning; a fully restored 911 will also be cool.
Being a student--pick your battles, meaning don't try to do everything. I'm not a full time student, but I am a full time worker, who's going for his masters degree in the evening. I recently bought a non-running '72 911 in July, and it has sat in my condo's parking garage since then, awaiting to go to my father-in-law's garage to get worked on. Sure I've waxed the paint 7 times and stared into the engine compartment about 50 times thinking about my "gameplan" to get it going, but I won't have the time until late spring again. Plus, I wasn't going to have it sitting in my father-in-law's garage for 6 months taking up space, feeling like I should do whatever it takes to get it finished and out of there.
So take your time...and do it RIGHT. That's a very nice starting point you have there. You don't want to cut corners. And if you don't have the time, or commitment...just pass it along. There's nothing wrong with that either.
