    yep, local shop quoted us at about 3600 bucks for a full paint job, red with a black top and pinstripe seperating the 2. Gosh i hope it turns out good, pretty new shop, but i have seen some of there work and they seem like they have things together. will be finished before the car show in Lakefield, MN on June 29th, expect many pics to come soon. Anyone have any pics of red with a black top mav?

    For a solid paint job w/ body work, that is not a bad price. (not even at 5k)
