67 Camaro with new metal. How many hours for prep and paint with a 2 tone scheme? Got a estimate that scared 3 years of my life

Even though it usually take 230 to 250 hours, We charge 200 hours AFTER sheetmetal and rough in bodywork (After quarter seams, patches, dents, roughed in 80%) for paint. Two tones will only add up to 8 hours

is there a different hourly rate for paint jobs or is it the same as regular shop rates? What's an average shop rate?

Depends on what part of the country you are. here in Florida your looking at $50 to $80, we are $60. In Cali, $80 to $100+, Back woods of Tenn, $30 to $40?
