A couple thoughts/suggestions on this dilema. If you are able/willing to do body work, do all the prep and repairs yourself to the point that you are happy with it then use Maaco or someone similar to do the actual paint. These guys can do reasonalbly decent paint work. Another possibility is a local voc-tech school with an auto body program. Some of these have after hours adult programs which you can attend to learn the process and sometimes use their facilty to do your own work.I have done this on several of my past projects at our local school. Or, you may be able to get them to do your work for the price of materials.
This may be too little too late in that you are into this guy for quite a bit of cash but at least it is information for possible future projects.
Good luck and a Merry Christmas.
