These are questions that you need to answer;
1) Why should I buy from YOU?
2) What have you built? Can I see it?
3) Why would I want to spend $100,000+ on a car from you? What makes you qualified?
4) What skills do you have?
5) Who's painting the car?
6) Who's doing the actual work?
7) Where is the shop?
8) Where is the equipmment? (go check out a car dealership service department for necessary equipment)
9) Who's doing the interiors?
10) What training have you had?
11) Do you have business experience?
12) Where are you getting the money? Most shops don't get paid until the car is done. Can you put out $75,000 in parts on a car and not worry about getting paid?
You may not like working for others, but this is how you gain experience. Even Chip Foose has work for others to learn the business before starting out on his own.
Go to college and get a business degree and a marketing degree wouldn't hurt either.---Tom

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
