Sedly, if that Video does nothing for you, I can recommend a couple of sites that have "better" videos that'll do ALOT more for you

Back to the original question-1600 is not to bad.
I just dropped my 56 cab off which needs old body attempt work/accident repaired,2 cab corners,roof corner de-crickled ,firewall smoothed,dash smoothed,all seams smoothed and door corners rounded,valence striaghtened,inner fenders smoothed,both front fenders repaired.$3000 is what I am looking at paying,but it will be show quality.
If your happy with the finished work,the price is always worth paying-my 2 cents worth
