Just my opinion. . .
I would expect some sanding, cleaning, body filling, drying, sanding, cleaning, puttying, sanding, cleaning, priming, sanding, cleaning, priming, painting. . . .You could do ALL of that except maybe the painting yourself. . .inexperienced, it shouldn't take more than about 2-3 hours yourself. . .
Have someone else paint it. . . I can't tell by the pictures, but it looks like it's a primer color already so if thats the case, you're set.

I agree.....abou 2-3 hours if you're capable yourself (or figure on whatever your local rate is). Probably about $30-40 worth of materials if you don't already have them.
