he paid 40k to have the car built fomr what I understand not jsut paint alone.....is that right Awesome tool?
HI there- Iam the shop that did the work for this customer. Sorry to just jump in here and not introduce myself.(Ill try to do that soon)

If anyone wishes to take this off line and ask me anything about the build or anything that is in my shop (or has been) Im happy to do so. I dont like to air dirty laundry and to do so brings me (and my business) to a level I dont care to go to.I am a professional and stand behind my shop and my work.

I have an open door policy here and have nothing to hide.
In a nutshell-$27K was what was into the car for metalwork,body & paint. the rest was parts that were purchased by the customer.

With over 200 hours in the paint alone, Im not thinking it ME that came out ahead...


Oh and thanks to Peter at Comp. Specialities for letting me know this post was here....
