Mr. Nut (or would that be W. Nut?)

At any rate, it all depends on how much you are really going to have to replace, as others have stated. The other factor might be where you are. I suspect that the local body shop here in South Dakota might be a bit cheaper than one, say, in Las Vegas. I could not agree more with the suggestion that you get a BID for the project and not an ESTIMATE!! Check with old car guys around where you live and see if any have good suggestions for body shops in the that area. You might think about doing some of the work yourself - let them do the welding, but you do the blocking, etc. Then let them do the paint. Squirting paint takes about 2 seconds. It is the blocking and smoothing that is so *(&)%*&&!! expensive.
Hope it helps and good luck...
