My dad had a painter look at it. The painter said the cab looks very nice, quality materials used, etc. Doesn't sound like it needs more bodywork. Primer used was Axalta Cromax LE 3004 S.

Bottom line, the painter said 5k ballpark, could be less, and that the cost of paint is extremely high. (I do know that paint is expensive.)

The painter is a friend of a friend. The painter has a resto shop and does everything himself. He has a nice "homemade" paint booth, wall lighting, filters, etc.
