Thank you for the comment. Again thank you all for your insite's. As it has been said before you start adding all the bit's and pieces as well as the time [time in many case's no one think's of or consider's, such as refitting door's after the new seal's go on that are way to thick ] Money has alway's come hard for me, but I still have had dream's so when customer's come in with dream's and an unrealistic pocket book's. I at least spend the time talking with them, educateing them on cost and as was stated before send them home with a catalog just so they can add up some of the cost themselves. Many time's we can find a common ground for what can be accomplished on there budget's and the job still get's done and they still enjoy the hobbie. We do alot more 20 to 50,000.00 dollar partial builds than anything. I have never personely had a customer pay me a 100,000.00 to build a car. Those kind of budget's don't exsist in cental Wisconsin. if they did I would not have sold the big shop recently and moved back to the one next to my rural home. We cannot all afford to build great 8 contender's but that's okay, as long as I can roll a few gear's and feel myself being set back in the seat, and can stand in my shop and see either mine or someone else's dream's comeing true I will be one happy camper. later Larry
