Default time to paint my ride, 1981 Mercury Zephyr

My Fox body has with stood the road for 27 almost 28 years now. I want to get it painted. I've heard of the Maaco horror stories. I don't want to spend money on a crappy paint job. Call me crazy but I'm leaning towards the 98 dollar paint job. The spray paint and roller deal.
I've already got a good bit of info on it. The reason why I want to do this is I'm a college student on a budget.

Whats your guys take on it?

Well, if it works it doesn't matter how the paint was applied, I think. I painted the whole front end of my car for less than $80 a few months ago, not with a roller though, so I know it's possible.

Well currently I'm getting info on different paint jobs. What kind of body work did you do before you painted?
