i think you can walk up to pretty much any auto body shop and get a quote
for basic body work and paint on a stripped car.  in fact, i think this is a
more profitable job for a body shop, since removal and installation of parts
is labor intensive, whereas spraying paint allows some markup on materials
as well.  most shops hate to do jobs that are labor only, or labor
intensive.

fwiw,
