Paintjob on Chevy Pickup I am looking into buying an almost mint condition 1949 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup. I'd like to have it painted white with white pearlescent ghost flames. I want to make it look awesome. Does anybody have an idea of how much this might cost (just to get it painted, not the cost of the truck)?

It sounds like it's going to look awesome! Well, a paint job on a small car is usually at least $1,000 without the ghost flames. Unfortunately this is going to be pretty expensive. Best of luck! ]
man on a truck like that there's no such thing as mint. there are going to be a lot of problems with something that old first off. and unless you're prepared to deal with everything from reringing such an old engine, to replacing every inch of hose i'd forget about it. painting something like that would prolly cost you a bundle too. especially with the fancy paint job you want. the paint and detailing will cost you at least $4000 if not more. you'll need to strip off all paint, replace any rust points, paint it primer gray, then paint with a basecoat, top coat, and clearcoat all the white parts, then the flames will have to be done on there in the same process and finally some line edging. you'll be spending a ton to do it. i say just paint it an old factory color and keep it original. ]
For a decent paint job, like 2,000 dollars, i would say. ]
