There are a slew of books on ebay for automotive custom painting, both old and new publications. I am not a painter but one concern I would have is that the techniques used with lacquer are way different than they are with todays modern paints. The old books may give you some ideas of the types of effects you want to end up with but the spraying techniques will be vastly different.
