For a decent paint job budget for around the 8 or 9k mark as you have already stated... A quality job will always reflect how much you have paid. I had my van bead blasted for 1200 i think it was (but that was a long while ago) getting it blasted is the best way to go for a complete finish, without taking it all the way back you will never find all the rust just waiting there for the fresh paint to go on until it shows itself. If you were only going to paint over what was already on there id say about 4 to 5k but getting it blasted it going to be alot more
