Any idea of how much it would cost to paint a d/c in and out in two colors. Not the bed. |

You need to talk to body shops in your area to get an accurate estimate. Sight unseen, I'd venture to guess you are looking at about $5k-$10k for a quality paint job. _________________ Wish List:

Local shop here in Harrisonburg, VA quoted me $7000 for paint and clear and that was IF they felt the body was prepped properly. IF not they would charge for bodywork. Needless to say when that time comes I'll look for someone else.
If you have a Votech school in your area that teaches auto body check with them. Often they will take cars in for the students to paint for a small fee or donation and you have to buy the paint. Believe it or not, the students usually do a fantastic job. _________________ -Jared
