    Number of Hours for Paint

    Hello again everyone. Been a while since I posted. Health issues have done a number on me and my family but I'm getting back on track with the finish line in sight which is exciting.

    I have a gen 3 which I am getting ready to send it off for paint and I was trying to get an idea of the hours I should expect. I was lucky enough to have Brendan from Battalion Motorports and Mark the Traveling builder, who are both fantastic and were a huge help to me, help me get the body on with rear glass and doors. We also trimmed the nose and got it mounted, however, I did not hold my side just right and I think it needs a bit of an adjustment. I also wanted to add the gurney wing flush into the body.

    I was hoping you all could give me a general range to expect. The painter I'm thinking of does pretty high-level work including a couple original Cobras and I'm a little worried the number of hours could push it out of my budget. I remember the Gen 3 had a lot better body to cut down on the hours of body work, but I no longer remember how many it took.

    Thanks for the help everyone and I hope you are all having a happy holiday.
