It would probably cost Bill $2500 to paint it (if you calculate materials & labor) and he owns a body shop. It could cost you 2-3 times as much to have it done. You now have to remove six years worth of grime, grease & primer.

If it is the car in the auction that Bill linked to it looks more to me that someone built it, trashed it for six years and now wants to unload it. As said, you can get a better replica that is done for less right now.
