To pay or not to pay, that is the question
Do it yourself, if you have the time.
Nothing like a car totally done by yourself.
That's if you really have the skills and the time. Be honest with yourself about your expectations and money you have to lay out.
If you get someone else to do everything, be prepared to put out major buck$!
At least half the price to do it yourself.
Good luck, and please post pics for us to drool over!
