How much?

Hey i'm getting my 91 z28 painted at some point but the cost is a little steep then again if you say i want it coming out of the showroom floor of course it will, i was wondering how much it would be just for an average paint job i have little dents here and there panels unaligned and little spots of surface rust.

I am hoping y'all would know some good price ranges for this.

Re: How much?

Just had convertible done -started at $2400, landed at $3200 w/extras, decals, badges, - keyed locks all same - also included a door from a parts car which was about $225.
Fixed rusty floor pan, and some cancer under GFX - I also had GTA painted with some body work .... $3000 + parts.

It's worth it.

Re: How much?

Most shops wont touch a complete paint job.
Its to much work for them and very little profit considering they specialize in Insurance clams.

Quick fast money.

Best thing to do is start calling around and ask if they are interested in looking at your car, and giving you an estimate.

This will give you some idea as to what is involved in some paint jobs.
Its a lot of work and takes real dedication to do the job right.

Those guys are hard to find.
