I've been in the painting buisness for 45 years, and 20K for a paint job especially on one that is disassembled is mind boggling! i think about 2/3rds of that is labor for someone to walk around with a cigarette in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other trying to find someone to b.s. about what happened last night.

I would say if it runs well and you can drive it (meaning not sagging) and you NEVER think about restoring it (150 plus and then find someone) 75 is not bad. You can hold on to it, have fun, and your heirs can sell it when you die. If it does not run FORGET IT, and pay 150 for one that is done. The C cab is the one to have. All of the factory improvements, and if champagne, the Bullit car!!!!

If it was tripple black from the factory that adds value.
