First, I get leary when someone says I'll bring it to you blasted, usually it's not good enough. Second, i guess it would matter if this a daily driver or a show car and it would depend on what shape it's in.
If you're talking just coat and cure $300-$400.

Thats right in line with what is charged around here.

Get ready For a coat and cure only they wanted $1500 .

Just so you guys know he asked the question knowing that I powder coat but dont have an oven that large. I was in the same ball park as you guys. Between $300-$1000 depending on prep. is what I told him it should be around.

that guy probably has a smaller oven so he has to cut the frame in pieces and weld it back together after coating

You know that is meant to be funny, but I had a potential customer ask me about doing just that on his roll cage on his off road truck. I probably lost a future customer, but I couldn't resist laughing at him.
