Stan & Kurt,
For my few cents worth of opinion, I looked into Waterford painting my '66. I did not use them for a few reasons: The clearcoat issue, the cost, they don't pinstripe, I could not find any one to recommend them, and when I contacted them about painting, they were not enthusiastic about working with me. Obviously they need to charge a price which makes money for their company, but set the price and then make a potential customer feel as if they truely want your business. I never got that feeling from them.
The painter I used was half the price and was very interested in my business. While he had never painted any Paramounts, all the Stingray, Krate, etc. owners who had candy colored bikes painted by him were thrilled--- and they told me so. He did a great job on my Radiant Coppertone, but he did find the chrome Nervex lugs challenging.
