I made my living at it for over 35 yrs. 1971 > . First question I'd ask is " are you OK with the fact that 6 mos after I paint it for you , it starts bubbling under paint job? Just because no rust shows, doesn't mean it isn't lurking just under his inch thick bondo. Once I paint that car for you , you can bet I will " own" anything that shows up as a flaw in the next two years. As has been stated below, only way I would touch it is with a full sheet disclaimer, relieving me of any and all liability , the same as a home builder would if you wanted him to build a new home on an existing foundation and grade. Also, why don't you ask if you can do all the "grunt work" like sanding and masking , to keep costs down? I found , whenever I had this situation, customer couldn't afford or thought it was tooo much, and I offered to let them "help" themselves out....all the sudden , no deal.

Offer to sign a complete disclaimer form obsolving him of any and all liability and he might lower cost a little ...help out and maybe even more.
