Default finally got around to cleaning out my car

I was bored so I decided to clean out the car to start getting it ready to be painted. Took a few pics for the hell of it. Anyone from central florida have any recommendations as to where to take my car to be painted. What can i expect to pay to have the outside painted the factory red and the inside, but not the engine

DAMNNN BRO! That is really clean! I'd say, as long as you get the factory color you don't even need to worry about the inside or jams.

Is the outside bad? Otherwise, I think you have no need to paint it. Save the money. Give us some more info or pics.

No it is not bad to take out the plastic lining...lol

BTW, i was watching him do this for a while and i must say that in the pics it looks painted but in person it does need to be painted IMO. The outside is much worse than inside as seen in these pictures. Dustin, bring the hatchrap over and will paint it the We-Todd style!

It's a 92' VX. I must have found $5 in quarters underneath the carpet and behind the pannels. The car was so nasty underneath all of that, but a little soap and water took care of most of it.

I've heard of a shop in Miami called Neighborhood AutoBody or something that does pretty good work. Don't take my word for it though I live in Jacksonville.....but a shop here in town called O'Steens does fantastic work! If your willing to drive I'd take it to O'Steens.

Wow! You really stripped that sucker! Car looks pretty good, and from what I can tell the paint looks good in the inside as well.
