Hey Zach,Your brother bought 4 clocks from me last week,it was nice talking to him and doing good business with him also.First of all as we discussed you guys send most of your work out,sandblasting and paint,right?I do all my own work so I dont have to pay all that labor to these guys.Seth told me that your painters dont cut you guys any slack,even on the new sheetmetal.They get 45 an hour I guess as I charge at the most 15,big difference.I get most of my paint from oriellys stores cheap by buying the screw ups they mix up,usually whites but sometimes reds.I have only done mobil to help everyone understand.This also saves a boat load.I already have everything to do all the bodywork and paint(tools) also.Seth said you guys send this out so this adds to your bill dramatically for sure.I usually have the pump owner buy all the resto from you(200 to 250)I put it together myself with new brass screws,which I have a family member that works where they are made,so no money out there and its done,hopefully without any scratches.I dont get rich but I alraedy have a good job.I do this for fun and a little extra petro money.I am swamped with work as we speak,I had to have my 69 conv camaro done by my friend,thats how busy I am.So far my work has been appreciated as I know alot of your has.Anyway thanks for your resto items and keep up the good work.
