[6pack] Paint job

[Jim Jones]

Kevin:
 
This might be helpful as a "high end" starting point. I paid $4500 to have my
car stripped to bare metal, removal of all fenders, door, hood, and trunk lid.
The basic body remained on the frame. I would hazard a guess that having your
car repainted on top of your current paint with single stage paint would be a
lot less than half that, if you removed your chrome, lights, etc. Of course
this is in rural MO were costs are lower.
 
I'd hate to see you loose your baby. Why not get an econo-beater for $2000 and
have both? Just a thought.
 
Jim

Any guesses as to how much I would have to pay for a decent, yet cheap
body-on paint job?  Just good enough to make my 6 look good enough to sell?
I have to sell, it has gotten to the point that I need a car for long
distance commuting that doesn't require constant maintenance.  It breaks my
heart, but I can not afford to keep my 6 AND buy a new car also.
