<div dir="auto">Very good question. <div dir="auto">All the work that you describe requires an individual with significant skill(s). These tasks are not something that your "run of the mill" parts changer can undertake. In our part of the world (Canada) those "parts changers", without breaking a sweat can easily pull in 6 figures which equates to $50/hr. $50/hr paid to the tradesman will typically be charged out at an hourly rate of at least $100.</div><div dir="auto">In my book a full restoration takes 1200 hours at least, usually a lot more to produce concours standards.</div><div dir="auto">So labour ONLY $120K.</div><div dir="auto">Parts and materials usually at least 50% of labour. $60K.</div><div dir="auto">Incidentals at least another $20K</div><div dir="auto">It's getting up there 😳😳</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">M</div><div dir="auto"><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun., Feb. 16, 2025, 1:40 p.m. warthodson--- via Healeys, <<a href="mailto:healeys@autox.team.net">healeys@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans-serif;font-size:16px"><div></div>
