For reference, I was looking at a 914 that was taken down to bare metal and repainted. The receipts for that were $9000. I would be very suprised to get a quality re-paint, in another color for less than $5K. I

The value of the car dropping kinda makes that investment foolish. I don't think you can use a 356 or speedster as a reference either, their value is inherently high due to scarcity.
