well as you were asking before   if you are going to do the prep and the body is in condition you only need to sand down the paint that is on it, but if you have body work to do like fix a rusted spot or big ass dents you need to take it down to the metal, fix it and prime so the body shop can do the work,      i would still get a good shop to do it though, not one of these in and out places,
