Body repair cost

How much would you guys estimate labor to have bolth quators, outer wheelwells, floors, and the metal above where the winshield goes and around the back window repaired?

Also anyone know of any place that sell bolt kits to put the suspension on the subframe I tore it apart a few years ago and have none of the hardware anymore.

Thanks

I had a friends shop put on a qtr,inner well,rockers,roll pan,had them repair damaged cowl hood and paint the car on a 69 and the price was just over 5000.

I did all of the trim removal,handles,lights,interior.. ect ect.

Make sure you don't buy cheap import metal. NOTHING will line up or fit like it should.

Year one or National parts depot are good places to get harware kits. I got a quote of 500 in labor just to hang a quarter one that is.

I have worked in a few good body shops and if you want nice work done and not some hack job I would expect to pay 5 to 6 thosusand for paint and all the metal work.

Yah, its deffinetly up there, I paid $2500.00 for a decent paint job about two years ago, but if you're going to cut and weld panels... that's going to up the price a lot.
