My dad talk to a O/O today that has an older Pete 379 daycab. Got it painted real nice cost him 4,100. I didnt think it would be that much. But i guess it is one of those things you get what you pay for.

I didn't think it would be that cheap! Really, I thought a paint job (done right) was around $8000.00. Guess I was asking the wrong people. hmmmm....... Now I'm thinking.

I'm really stunned at the prices I'm seeing in this thread. Maybe a paint job isn't as far off as I thought for my truck.

mechanical sanding, hand sanding, masking off twice (once for each color), wet sand. not sure on number of coats. im sure it was cheaper because i got a ton of other stuff done too.
the first place that painted it did a ****ty job.
