You could also contact a local Vo-Tech and see if they need a volunteer. They usually do it for the cost of the materials. It most likely wouldn't be the same as the $2,800 paint job but then again it could be well over two thousand dollars cheaper!

Mine is red, kind of a worn out red. I'm thinking of getting new paint also but I'm starting to like the red. I might think about having a little gold flake added to it though just to give it a little sparkle.
Color is so individual that no survey is going to make your choice for you. you just need to figure out what you like and what you can afford.
I found a wagon in orange but I think I'd like it a bit brighter. This just seems a little dark.
