I don't know however, which one's would bring the most return on investment. Any input there?(QUOTE)
I'll agree with Don. After 40 years in the car game, building for profit is only a distant dream. That's the reason I paint today.
I used to buy and build early Vettes. One day I started figuring how much I had made per hour of work, on the '61 I had just sold. It was 25 cents an hour. I knew that I made money on the ones I just bought and sold, without any changes. I decided to stop trying to build 'em, and eventually stopped "turning" them, too.
Today I get a reasonable wage per hour, get to help with some really great projects, and let the owner get his money back in enjoyment.Last edited by HOTRODPAINT; 05-31-2006 at 04:06 PM.
".......So sanded it all down and resprayed. ......" Been there. done that on a couple of paint jobs over the years. Usually took me a couple of days to get over being mad before I started...
