I did mine myself, mostly. It sure isn't show room, but I am satisfied. I used a single stage urethane and just finish sanded with 6000 grit. It's more of a satin finish, but I like it that way.
I did all the body work in my garage, then borrow my nephew's gun and compressor to prime it. We took it to his house to do the finish and gave a friend of his $100 to spray it for me.
