looks beautiful man! was thinking of a similar color palette for mine. mind if i ask what your paint job went for?
It'll probably end up being in the $5000 neighborhood, which I think is a really good deal considering all the rust that was on the car, plus some minor dents and some hail damage. I had gotten a quote from somebody that does really high end stuff, and he was going to charge me over $15,000 without any rust repair, that would have been extra. I obviously wasn't going to pay that much, especially when I only paid $400 for the car, but the real kicker was when he said "You won't want to drive this car when I'm finished." Some people are looking for that type of end product but not me.
I found this body shop on Craigslist. Its certainly nothing fancy or in the greatest of neighborhoods but he does good work and takes a lot of pride in his work. I originally took it in just to get the inner rocker panels fixed, but when we found more rust under the trim and he was willing to do it for a good price I decided to get the whole car re-painted. Its taken awhile, but I think any restoration type repainting will take several months. He's done it the right way and done a good job.
