Policy and Rate Information (as of 1/1/2012)
The Western Pennsylvania region where our shop is located has been able out ride out the recent economic downturn with less impact than have other areas of the country. This has allowed us to maintain our very competitive labor rates for 2012.
Rates:
Work is performed on a “Time and Materials” basis
The Shop Labor Rate is $65.00 per hour for Restorations and Custom Builds
The Shop Labor Rate is $70.00 per hour for Repairs and DIY Services
A minimum shop fee of $7.00 per hour is charged to cover the cost of consumables
Parts are billed at cost plus 20%
Sublet services are billed at cost plus 20%
Shipping is billed at cost
Deposits, Billing and Payment:
All projects require a deposit roughly equal to one month's expected labor charge in order to begin
Projects are billed monthly and include a description of all work and services performed and parts received. Photographs may be included as documentation
Payment of the minimum amount due is expected within 30 days of the billing. Interest charges may be incurred after 30 days.
Invoices not paid within 30 days of the billing will result in a work stoppage until paid
Projects suspended due to non-payment may be subject to storage and late fees. Projects suspended at the owners request may be subject to storage fees
All projects must be paid in full before the car is released
Estimates:
In general, we don't give estimates. The nature of restoration work makes it nearly impossible to do so. Everything is relative.....the condition of the vehicle, its rarity, cost of parts, amount of research, etc. That said, most of our restorations range from $100,000 to $400,000. It is very rare that the cost will come in under $100k. A full, body off restoration will require 2000 – 3000 hours of effort or more.
We will work with you to define a “Scope” of work to be performed that can help us to set expectations for the project.
