As for painting and body work, the Primedia website or a local public library that carries back issues, and grab one of the paint magazines.  Grab one of the "Paint your first hot rod, pt 1-3" series and give it a whirl.  

what issue is the paint ur own in?

my friend, you will learn by doing. start out with something small,then you will know what questions to ask.

You may want to consider take some autobody classes at a local community college. That's what I'm doing right now. I was amazed at all the things I thought where the right way to do things was actual the wrong way or atleast the expensive way! You may even be able to paint you car while taking the course. I'm hoping to paint my Mustang next summer after I finish advance painting. You may even qualify for finacial aid. I'm using my GI bill. Oh and part of the course is welding!  

im going to aacc right now and ive looked for auto class's they dont have them =(

The problem with what your wanting is that you have to have hands on will someone is teaching you. Just getting the information is only the beginning  

and it takes practice (sometimes a lot of it) to get good at something

Your gonna have to be prepared to do some things over several times before its right. This is a hobby of patience  

im def not the most passiont guy lol but i have been reading blueprinting engines and how to paint your own car

This is a very time consuming hobby even when you know what your doing. Its great you want to learn but to truely understand things you need to get hooked up with someone willing to teach you. If you do find someone to teach you be prepared for tough love teaching. We dont like wasting our time so we have to make sure your serious.  

i am serious but the old school guys around here cant look past are age and see we really want to learn
