    If you 'hit' Brookville at an NSRA or Goodguys show, they will quite often discount anything they have with them so they don't have to take it home. Other then that, a friendly shop owner might be able to come up with an appropriate price if you end up buying lots more parts from him. My '31 Brookville had a bunch of bucks off list - no shipping or crating charges and a couple of other options were priced right. Much of the rest of the car did come from my dealer so he made out otherwise. I did pay a price on quality though as body and paint prep went on forever. If you are an accomplished body man, then not a big deal.

    Oh yeah - the final cost - gasp, gag!! In my case about 2x what I thought it would be and if I were to do it again, probably could do it within a time and dollar budget as my past vertical learning curve - it's now closer to flat/horizontal
