Yep, if its costing $5000 just for the rust repairs, you are being ripped!

    When I was running about to get the roof rust fixed, the first guy I went to gave me a quote of 10k! After telling him if he just doesnt want the job just say so :P I went to the next one who did it for me for about $1600, and that covered a respray of my bonnet and boot which was starting to peel.
