 was $1400.  I was about ready to accept the $600 without the "paint
 blending" when I noticed the rust around the windshield.  I now have worse
 rust there than associated with the chrome trim.  My paint is that
 non-descript color I call putty that's not quite silver and a long way from
 anything like beige, so it's not one of those special colors such as pearl
 or pearlized silver.

did everything you described to my '86 5kt, with the dealer supplied touch up 
spray cans.    do it yourself...   you'd be surprised....
