You have to find an enthusiast that is as much of a perfectionist as you are. This person also has to enjoy their work and want to do the car. You almost have to be a body/paint guy to know what to look for. If a car has no bodywork to be done, I just can't see paying 10g. I would honestly paint my own car if it needed it because I trust noone else. I'll be painting my '66 Mustang sometime within the next year, I'll post pics when its finished and detailed. I plan on spending less than 1g on materials. I think you guys will be surprised at what can be done with patience and $1000.
