Complete brake job needed, opinions?

Hello again

The 72 needs brakes in a bad way. Some of the components are probably original. Anyway, here is what the shop says it needs, and from what I looked at, I agree:

Front:

New pads and Rotors
New grease seals
Calipers need to be overhauled
Wheel bearings need to be repacked
Acuator adjusted
New brake fluid (flush and refill)

Rear: New pads
Resurface drums (or whatever it is they do)

Also it needs new (or remanufactured) master cylinder and hoses

All of this is going to add up pretty quickly, but I want it done correctly. The PO had done a lot of work, but left brakes off the list.

I don't have time to do it myself, unfortunately. I know that would save a lot.

Anyone care to tell me what they think it should cost? I'd like to get an idea before I hand over some $$$.
