If you do all the labor on taking things off and apart and reinstalling them, you'll get a much cheaper paint job. Maaco did my first bus that way and it looked great for about 10 years. Find a painter that is willing to work with you. The Maaco in NE will. I've also used Kevin at Straight Line Auto Body on NE Grand who does really nice work. How much are you willing to spend?

I used Alberta Auto Body. It's fairly far north on MLK.

Pretty happy with the results. Gave me a discount for Ca$h.

The only one that matters in Maine - but I'm on the right coast. The others might think that Oregon is the right answer but they are on the wrong coast.

The one with zillions of vanagons ... on the left coast. 8)

But I don't know where yellowvan lives. :?:
