A co-worker had his '64 Chevy Pickup painted by Maaco about 3-4 years ago. It was a $4,000 job. It looks better than several 10-12k jobs I've seen. I agree it's all in the prep work...and it helps when the franchise owner is a 'car guy'. I had a '66 GTO painted in '79 by a Miracle outlet in the Bay Area...the owner was a 'car guy'...my paint job turned out excellent. Used another Miracle outlet in 1986 on another GTO....the paint came out terrible. Never again. So, if it were me, I'd check for references on the particular MAACO you are considering.
