If they worked 8 straight hours a day from 0800 to 1600 with one hour for lunch they are taking 12-13 days to paint it and ! ! another 13 days to panel beat it. As I said this car is very straight and has minimal bog as is.   Does this sound right or am i right in thinking it is alot. Don't get me wrong, the guy had a look and was here for an hour or so. He went into depth talking about getting the lines right, getting the doors lined up etc and tidying up the engine bay by getting rid of uneeded holes and bits etc I am sure it would be a good job and done right etc What do you think? I have heard about guys rolling in there cars to get pearl show car jobs done and being charged this much which would include stripping the parts from the car too. Mine is a vare shell, no work involved there. Maybe people Like Pete N or Ray Longmire or even Barry at Datsport might have an opinion as you guys seem to have done the whole hog on restoring your 1600s Yahoo!
