I think the customer probably received a pretty good value. I know several body shop owners that will do restorations when the business is a little slow. I have seen some shops take up to 4 or 5 years. Anytime you take a car to a shop you never know what you will get back or if the shop even finishes the project. Of course you can spend 50-100k on a restoration but who can afford those? And I don't think Tim is marketing OE Gold restorations. I wonder how many hours Tim and his crew have into this project and. I bet when it is all said and done their shop will be lucky to have earned $50-60/hr.
