Hi Guys - lots of ordering of parts this week and work to be done. My 97 has beluga black clearcoat and 6 years in the florida sun. Besides new window seals (which need replacing anyways) how much should a good paintjob with clearcoat take or what do you guys recommend as an alternative to the clearcoat? I NEED THIS TRUCK ON THE ROAD!!!

Basecoat/clearcoat is the way to go, as for how much? That depends on you...some shops will not do a paintjob with clear for under 2 grand and for a decent job or same as factory it could easily come to 3 grand. Do some research, don't just pick the first shop you come by, as for paint brands like PPG, Martin-Senour, Sikkens, etc...they are all good in the hands of a competent painter.
