Do it yourself, you can make a decent booth with poly hanging around. I have even seen some pretty good paint jobs from just free spraying in a garage with no containment at all. Just wet the ground and take your time. You could probably do the whole car for a couple hundo yourself.

Anywhere that sells paint can tell you exactly what you need and how much. Some parts stores sell it, otherwise there are automotive paint stores, someone can chime in with where some are in fargo....

definatly build a paint booth out of poly then but its pretty easy. Napa has Martin Senour, and I can get the good PPG stuff from my jamestown store. Black isnt too bad but some of those colors are downright spendy.

.... I saw you car the other day. You need to clean it really really good. Then get if buffed. The paint looked to be in really good condition just really dirty/needing of some love. I would spend the $200 or so and get the car completely professional detailed. 2 or 3 stage buff...

So it is hard to keep black paint nice, but you would rather respray it than just buff it?? Factory paint holds up really well so if it isn't bad, leave it and just clean it up. Your car won't stay clean just by repainting it.
-
ya just get it buffed and what ever. after that remember to wash it all the time, like 2+ times a week, even if its just a spray off with a pressure washer to keep the dirt down.
I know we wash my dads truck 2-3 times a week. It sits in a gravel parking lot 12+hours a day

Sounds like my car^, I always get stuck sittin at the end of the driveway next to the mud puddle everyone likes to go splashing through lol, but yeah I'll try that and see what it does for me.

Just get your car buffed. I dont know if those are 2 stage paint or if they are old enough for single stage, but TO me your car just looked in need of some TLC. Before you decide you want to paint it, atleast drive by SLD and have him take a look. He's an expert on that kind of stuff and I'm sure he'll give you a professional opinion for free.

+1 on having Kevin @ SLD look at it. He should be able to tell you if he thinks he can get it to shine up nice or if its worth the repaint. I don't believe he charges for estimates either.
