Sound good? How about we just say 60k to finish it. I pay you 90 percent now, and come back and give you the rest when I pick the car up in two months. It should be done in two months right???

Well -- I'd be getting rich at that rate!!! I built an entire '55 Chevy - LS2 - 6 speed - AME chassis - slick firewall and inner fenders - raised the floors - new trans tunnel - complete new wiring - all new rubber.... and I charged Rick 1/2 the cost of the chassis for my '37 Ford (6K).
I figure I put about 35K in parts in Rudy's Camaro - and it's at the upholstery shop now... so that will be 60K in no time at all... He bought breakfast a couple of times.
Now - the fact that those cars are complete crap.... well... you know the old saying about getting what you pay for. I'm ready when you are.
(fingers crossed behind my back) -- 60K ALL IN ALL DONE - 2 MONTHS - NO PROBLEM!! EASY!!
