Happy Holidays, one and all!

I would like to have my '90 Carat repainted in the next 6 months or so. I don't plan to enter her into any contests or anything, but since she is in otherwise very fine shape, I think I owe her at least a level of quality paint job befitting such a well-preserved bus. 

Would anyone be able to recommend the best type of paint process for the money? I have a feeling a Maaco job won't cut it. The factory paint color is "Orley blue" which has this really wonderful irredescent tone that I would like to have replicated. I would assume it came with a clear coat - is this necessary to achieve the best finish?

thanks,

Scott K.
