It will be close....$80K for sure....Keith's metal fabrication is second to none.....his bill alone is over $15K so far....

It's never cheap to do it right.  Really looking forward to seeing the finished results.  It's inspiring to see the cars you do.   :2thumbs:
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Alan just looked through your pictures on this car, the workmanship is just spot on great. Do you outsource everything then do complete assembly?

I completely "facilitate" the entire restoration....

I take care of everything like a large resto shop, but I don't have a roof big enough to cover everybody....I have the same guys to the blasting, the same guys do the metal work and the same guys paint the cars...I do everything else.

Are their some items like the heater box or brake pedal assembly you would restore yourself?

So some things like the heater box and brake pedal assembly you restored yourself?

YES...Everything except: Wiper motor, latches, blower motor, radio, or any other items with special plating.
I have an engine shop build the motors, I paint and detail them.
I have a transmission shop rebuild the trannys and rear gears, I paint and detail them.
I have a close friend that works with me to install headliners/vinyl tops and windshields

Otherwise it's all me man....just me....although member PIMTAO wants a job :smilielol:

WOW U DA MAN!
And your full time on CC!
The reason I'm asking is, have you ever done a tech thread here showing how you restore something? Would love to know how to properly restore parts on these cars.
