The above replies pretty well cover it. There was a letter in one of the street rod magazines about a year ago from some builder in Southern Calif. complaining to the magazine about their coverage of the street rods and they never mention the time and labor involved. He said he had many people bring in magazines and want a car built exactly like that one for $40,000 dollars and with the overhead and labor and all the parts he had to get he couldn't begin to built one that cheap. He also told them to not forget the parts that they had given to them and the ones they took from work. Most of us don't think about the hours and parts we buy to put on the cars and they really add up in a hurry.
