Price of a half decent paint job?
Gentlemen... and I use the term loosely...
What should I expect to pay for a paint job on my 80 Z28? I know the striping kits are about 250$. I checked with a local "restoration" shop, and he said their paint jobs start at 7500$. I don't think I need show quality, but want it to look good.

All over the place. Not a set price for decent paint, but it seems to run in the $3,000-$4,000 if the body is straight and doesn't need dent or rust repair.
I found a guy 3 blocks from me that did mine for $2200, and did a fantastic job.

Remember when tour shopping around. The price of materials alone can run over a grand. My paint is $550. 2K primer another $150. Epoxy primer $120. Then sand paper is not cheap. I'd be I'm close to $500 when I'm done. I spent $100 on my sanding blocks. $150 for a DA. $100 for a sandblaser. Plus at least that much so far in sand. Oh yeah then I'm going to need another $150 for clear coat. And finally my super cheap $150 paint gun. Its adding up.
