the price of the paint itself has quaddrupled in the last couple years, not to mention with multiple layers of paint you mention. there will have to be some stripping involved. if the film build (layers of paint) is to high it will easily chip and crack. and all the other materials, sanding and masking papers and tape, strippers, blocking labor, primering, more blocking labor, rust repair labor and materials, and paint cost, with buffing and painting labor. its not too far off base for a decent job. everything is costing more and more evryday. a typical shop rate is around 50 bucks an hour these days. my nieghbor does show and magazine cars, he charges 20 to 50 grand for a show car body and paint job. he did a hi boy for a budwiezer distributor, in bud red. built the whole car frame up, 220,000
