The last two things I painted were house doors. Seriously.
One door was for a buddy. I told him his house would probably look like a brothel with an automotive paint finish but he loves it. :D

6 months probably if you're doing it after work.
A rough estimate for doing an old cars paint job is usually a minimum of $5000:eek:
To do it right, strip it all the way down to metal and start over. But I suppose you could always do bondo over bondo.
