Thanks everyone. I really am proud of the paint. 
My Vette had 3 coats of paint to remove, realign , repair body parts, new L88 hood ,fab pipes to attach side pipes and finally a high cost 3 stage paint with stripes.   Lots of extras done. $7,000 .
I don't really like saying how much I paid but the members here are different we need to know!
Quote was $5,000 to $5,500 for the basic good paint without without parts and extras.
