Depends if automatic or manual, but in general terms about $1500. Forget the paint job as it does not make the vehicle go. If it runs OK then fix the transmission and run it until you save enough money to get what you want and can afford.

Key Stuck and Shifter Wont Go down to 4, 3, or 2...HELP!?

if you have any friends or family members that work on cars go to car-part.com to find the tranny that will be the cheapest way to go maybe around $500 you didnt say what year or type of truck so thats a guess (thats what i paid for my tranny)and yes a macco paint job not the greatest but ok and cheap

Have a '89 mustang gt,runs fine for abt 5 mls till it engine gets warm then starts missing any suggestions?

It would not be a good idea to start pouring that kind of money into a non working vehicle. Despite what anyone says, there's no way to tell if the rest of the truck is OK without driving it and you could be sinking cash into that thing forever.
