72 SWB Frame Powder Coat price???????

Anyone know what on average a good powdercoating would run on a 72 SWB frame? I want to do it in black.

Also, what are your thoughts on Powdercoating the frame verses painting it then undercoating the whole bottom of the truck?

The frames the next step on the project after I get home from this deployment.

Thanks, Brian.

i've heard the norm is around $500 here
really depends what you're building the truck for and budget concerns
on a tighter budget with you doing the work you can get a nice looking enamel painted frame for $50 ,that frees up $450 to spend on go stuff

Thanks guys. Your coments really help. It would be great to pay someone to do all the prep work as I just keep running out of time with yearly deployments overseas.
