You probably save in the neighborhood of about $6000.00 to $7000.00 by
doing the work yourself.I did start doing it myself or intended on doing that
but all of the things involved in doing it i thought was to much work by the time
i thought about it.It seemed like you had to do to many things like installing the emergency brake and all of that other stuff.I had problem neighbors where i had it and a problem with Greenwood,Indiana etc. as a whole so i just decided to have someone finish it because of the work and moving it from that location
because i got rid of the house.What i found out after talking to someone at
this Unique Motorcars was that even though it was assembled that it would most likely have to be disassembled to be painted meaning more money
and from the way Dana Dankert was talking that it could be put together
and then painted regardless of having the windshield and everything installed.
They could just tape around everything i always thought or he said the same
if i remember right.Just seems like alot of work and more and more money
involved in these so that is why i sold what i had and let someone else deal with it.
