Paid to restore a car.... Questions.

When my Cuda was getting done 4yrs ago it was $35/hr and pay as we go. That way its not so much "sticker shock" at the end of the project for the owner & gives the tech the cash flow he needs. That way everyone is on the same page. Not staying current w/payments? No work. Its as simple as that!!! It looks like you have a nice project. Personally I like the cars original & stock. Good luck....
