  • Does anyone know cheap decent painter?

    Hello everyone, I don't post much on here but I need your guys help!
    I got a second car yesterday.. a 1973 Datsun 240z.
    I am spending the next 2 weeks stripping it down, sandblasting and fixing the body for paint. That being said, I have budgeted 7k for a full paintjob for her. Does anyone know a reputable shop that can paint the whole car for 7 grand or less? I was thinking Dark green with tan rally stripes down the middle. I'll post pictures when I am home. Thanks!

    MACO, or maybe Earl Schieb, he will paint any car any color for .... Hehe
    Why don't you talk to Pete at Showstoppers. he does a quality job and if you are doing all this prep work he may be able to cut you a good deal.

      Good paint isn't cheap and cheap paint isn't good....but I would think 7K will get you a GOOD paint job. Get ahold of Showstopper (Pete).

                  I had my Camaro painted by Vince at the Paint Spot in Addison - 630.543.7111. Tell him Doug with the yellow Camaro referred you. Picture attached as a reference.

                    I restored a280z I had so much hidden rust after sandblasting I had no rockerpanels left I ended up replacing them with fiberglass it turned out well in the end . GOOD LUCK with your project it was one of my favorite cars

                      There's a guy out in South Beloit who is pretty darned good. I've seen a lot of his work. If you haven't already decided on a shop, let me know and I can get you his contact info.
