Paint issues and question

Hey fellow thirdgen members

Been a while since i have been on. Too many projects going on, namely painting my house. So a couple of years ago, 3 to be spot on, I repainted my 1989 Formula 350. Initially it came out great. I took it down to metal and used paint from Eastwood. Sadly the paint is now shot. The paint form eastwood is horrible. So much time and money spent to just be back at square one has beyond angry.

So I am going to wrap the car in black gloss. I have had it with paint on this car for now. The original paint was bad and now this. I am going to clean up the paint thats bad, get the body smooth then wrap it, put the graphics back on and finally enjoy it.

My question, how much wrap to do I need to get this done? Best I figure is 5ft by 50ft being its a t-top. But anyone have any experience in wrapping a 3rd gen and how much material I need would be appreciated. thanks!
