Default Maaco?

Anyone have any experinse ot macco? How much would it cost with all the body work done just them do the primer and paint? Would it look decent? How long should it last?

Or should i spray paint it?

This isn't for the 86 but possibly a 87 for a dd.

Yeah I thought so too, I took my camaro back there once and that was the price quote I got for a once over with paint. Call Maaco, at least that way you'll get a straight answer and not rumint.

Hey does anyone remember "Earl Scheib" ??? It was that paint shop from the early 90's that stated they would paint any car for $99.95. It appears that they are still around. A buddy of mines little brother has a 90 LX that he just had painted and it looks awesome. No body work included, but with masking off and spray a black metalic base/clear coat set him back $500.00 But the job really turned out nice.
