Chris is this one going to SEMA? Can't wait to see it in paint!! :thumbsup:

fesler 11-14-2008 07:11 PM

Well we did get the car to SEMA if anyone out there has not seen it yet we will get updates to you very soon, hopefully next week.

We got the car out of paint on the tuesday before SEMA so we had four days to get what you say at the show. I will post shots from SEMA as well so you can see how far we got.

We hope to start it as in engine next week or so. Its getting close

From the pictures it looks like you guys do great work, I have also seen a couple of the other cars you have done in the past.

I am looking at having to do paint on my project soon, so here is my question: How much did it cost to bring this mustang or even the black 69 that you built to paint? I am not talking about metal work or rust repair, just the cost in bringing it to finished paint from after all metal work is done.

Thats a loaded question its hard to say with out seeing anything. I would say $15-20K inside and out. Might be less but with out seeing?

GrabberGT 11-15-2008 07:04 AM

What front suspension are you using on this?

It's not loaded at all, I was enquiring on how much you charged to do this mustang or the the black 69.... I know you can not transfer that price to my car directly since every car is different, but it gives me an idea of what your quality costs.

It is a loaded question because no two cars cost the same, ask any painter on this board or in the industry and they will tell you the same thing. On average you can look at it this way the Black Camaro is roughly $20K and the Orange car is more as it has 9K just in materials for the 3 stage paint.

When it comes to paint you get what you pay for and most people will not pay the big bucks for a complete right paint job. We charge $50 an hour for paint work and you pay for how long it takes, with out seeing the car it is a loaded question because if I quote something out I have to try and stay on that. I hope this better helps you.

I always ask people what they want to spend and then from there can guide you to how nice your paint will be. We have been painting cars for years and as I stated you get what you pay for when you come to us. Might not be the case at other shops.

If you would like to send me pictures of what you have I can get it close but nothing on paper till we see the car in person and go over it.

I only asked the question for my own knowledge. I am not trying to get a quote for my car sight unseen, or whatever else you might have thought I was trying to do. I was only trying to get an idea of what the cars you already built cost for paint. I guess I cant post anything on this site without it being misconstrued.

Brian there were some post on here that have been removed that is why there are some long replys here. I tried to give you the best quote I could for what you have given me. If you want to send me pictures I can try and get you a little better quote but need pictures to do so. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Any updates on the Mustang or especially that Chevelle? I haven't seen any lately.:cheers:
