Just checked my records, the invoice total was $16,594.52. This amount was billed after the costs were incurred from my end and after I had paid the GST etc, which is the majority of the invoice. Damage you paid that invoice 2 weeks later after I chased you up the 2nd time for payment. By the time I received payment I had already paid the entire shipping costs out of my own pocket.

And I have not charged you for one single work item since. So no charges for unloading the container, installing all suspension into the vehicle, installing rear differential, body repairs and all the other work that has been performed. More than fair in my books.

5 to 10 hours might be possible with a lot of guys working on that vehicle at once and just physically bolting it together and nothing more. This is not a simple bolt together car. Things like suspension mounts etc need to be tuned for fitment and sub-assemblies constructed etc.

Interesting enough we were waiting for other very large components to arrive to share in the shipping costs, but after receiving Damage's request, we shipped out immediately in a smaller container. The other components we were waiting for were overdue and I was more than happy to wait any longer either. But I got served a whole lot of grief about the shipping cost, even with the other components shipped with it to share in costs.
