mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted October 22, 2019 This a customer from Florida that thought his car was in good shape. I'm hoping this will be one of last rust buckets to work on. It's actually around 4,000.00 less money going with the new bodies we are doing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted October 28, 2019 Most of you probably won't believe this, but even on a 200,000 build there's very little profit left. I still do this because we have very knowledgeable people, and it allows us to keep developing parts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
latoracing 256 Report post Posted October 28, 2019 Out of curiosity, what is your labor rate? (If I can ask that type of question) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mustangstofear 608 Report post Posted October 28, 2019 75.00 per hour . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 90 Report post Posted October 28, 2019 That’s actually very reasonable. There is a shop not to far from me that only does mustangs and they charge $150 an hr. I’ve heard a lot of bad things about them from multiple people. If you guys were closer to me I would have had you do work on my car. Nice to know there are honest companies out there doing this kind of work and not charging two arms and two legs for their rate. Especially for the quality of work you are doing.
