I meant no offense by my comment about a $30k paint job; it's simply that I really had no idea that a nice paint job for a classic car could cost that much. </div></div>

Dave, no offense taken and sorry if my response sounded that way. Not at all. I certainly agree with the cost versus value completely but people just need to understand a $10 paint job is likely not one on a car that has been stripped to bare metal and completely redone but rather paint over paint and on repairs that will not last very many years. I see our paint jobs lasting indefinitely as well as any bodywork.
