I'm looking for some help on basic car restoration tips...

Who should I consult, what projects are good for beginners? Paint, Engine Repair etc..

Best websites for tips?

Makes and models of cars best to start with?

Looking forward to this new hobby

Buy something simple with no rust for starters. Probably the best would be a VW Beetle (the original one, of course) or anything similar. There are countless brands selling honest machines like the Beetle, Ford made the Pinto, just about anything Honda from the 1980s, etc.
