the last estimate I got for a paint job for my 88 truck was 3 years ago and it was anywhere from 2400 to 3000 just for stock silver metallic. that included a new tailgate and new trim and molding. I ended up at peach autopaint. ( kinda like maaco) rut roe dont get maaco. My paint looked good for about a year then went to hell very very fast. You could sit and watch the paint fade. lol.

paint is one thing you DO NOT cheap out on or it will show.
expect to pay 5 grand for a top notch job with body flaws fixed.
