Sorry dude but i do have to disagree with you there.
Not to say there are not really bad cheap paint jobs but it is more of who you know than what you know.
I had my HJ monaro resprayed and even before that he massaged the body smooth and dent free, then we cut out the rust and bog from earlier owners, had sheet metal beaten to shape tacked in and lead wiped. After all that he then painted it and helped me put it back together.
All this and other little things only cost me $1400.
Oh and a couple of bottles of rum.....
That paint job was as good as it was years later when i sold it too.
Now I have moved to melb, and have lost all my contacts and am starting fresh here.
So i cant get the guy to do it for me again or find out if he wants more work....
but there is my 2cents that just because it is cheap doesnt mean if you know the right people you cant get a good job done.
thanks
