Depends on if any body work needs to get done.

You get what you pay for. With any rust or body damage, the cost can go up exponentially. Get some estimates, find some referrals and see what works with your budget. I'd recommend a base / clear option for sure.

it is always gonna need some bodywork. and when you get it painted you let the paint shop get it to where they want otherwise they are going to tell you when the paint messes up that it was whoever did the bodywork.

And here in california a "good" paint job is like 3k and a better than good is more than that.
