Pricing is involved and complex, or as simple as time and materials, so it may be fair with you the customer, and us the business. For example, if you have a new Hummer and want the sides flamed, yes, we can quote you a firm price.  If you have 1967 Camero, and are wanting a complete rotisserie restoration form the ground up, no, we can't quote you a firm price.  If you have a new steel bodied '32, and are wanting it all black, no, we can't quote you a firm price. We will discuss with you how far you want to go with your project, as we can be as good as our customers allow us to be.  We can go with our best guess (drawing from years of previous experience)  On what it's going to take financially and time wise, to give you an approximate cost/time idea. On all our big projects we ask for $1K down when we receive the car.  Our shop labor rate is $60.00 an hour.  You will be invoiced twice a month, on the 10th and the 25th.  You will receive a detailed invoice for the labor worked and any materials or parts bought.  You will also be e-mailed photos of the work completed so you can see the progress of your project.
