a good paint job, means removing all of the glass and stuff like that. and a removing all the old paint and body filler, so a job like that you are looking 4-10k

^^ That better be a smokin paint job for 10K. But in all seriousness I had a place look at my car a while back and with all the body work, etc. with good paint it would of been around the 6k range. Body work can be a MAJOR factor.

all i can say is have fun, when i was looking for my second stang i did not look at the drive train at all, i mean i checked it out and made sure it was ok, but i did not care if it was sitck, auto, 302, 306, 347 what ever it was, the only thing i looked at was the body. it needs paintd but its pretty stright.
