Thats a loaded question ,  you can get a nice driver , to an over restored show car , to a ebay 10 footer special .   He will do turn key assembled or assmeble required.   If i find out what range wayne is paying i'll let you know .   My buddy had his challenger convert done there with about the same sheet metal replacement, plus pete  took apart and re-assembled him self .   Pete supplied all the parts .  Ed just did labor , paint and body supplies .

That dude is working pretty fast alright. Keep the pics coming  :popcrn: , I love seeing a resto in progress.

*"We normally wouldn't use a 383 for this build, parts and labor for a 440 cost the same."

Yes, it was a loaded question. Here in the snowy northeast, labor is ludicrous. Parts are parts but labor is out of control. I know I'll end up doing all the work myself but I would be curious to know what others around the country are charging for labor. As for your crew, looking good. They'll be motoring around the mid-west soon enough. Rock , chalk, Jayhawk...

Wow that is pretty quick. Should still be a very nice looking car once done. Not a big fan of white cars though, but they do look good if they are done right.
