Don't laugh, I heard it from a really old body man (panel beater) who is known for practical jokes.That’s exactly what I thought!!
He also told me that model A's were painted with brushes, now I've heard that before

Good grief and holy sheet…I hope you don’t retire before I can afford to send my car to you. Do you do lay-a-way?
Honestly, it's not that bad on a weekly invoice (assuming you budget for it) outside of some big ticket items. For example, I'm sure the cost of the paint materials here would be more than a weekly invoice, but Kevin has also called me to tell me we should buy a bunch of clear (long before we need it) just due to the fact that he had a price that we needed to take advantage of which will save in the end. Also his hourly rate is *checks notes* WAY higher than expected! (secret side note for just you) he's way too low but don't tell him that!
Thanks man! I do everything I can to make these builds do able for anyone. Its still not cheap. Especially when using quality materials. But I try to save where I can for people. And I try to keep hrs steady and not heavy while still making progress until we reach a time where a lot of hrs are needed to finish a job.
Alright, I gotta ask... What's ballpark if somebody drops off a running Fox body?

That really depends on what you want, and what surprises you find along the way. Then it also depends on how much you stick to your plan. I will say I am WAY over the original budget for the original plan, but that plan got shot to hell pretty quickly and I just said screw it let's do it right!Alright, I gotta ask...

The way he invoices helps a lot. He has two of my cars right now. One nearing the finish line if it will ever behave, and another that I think will break the Saleen Community.
Sun time.
Cut and buff on fenders.
And from the back almost looks like a car now with the lid on.

Couldn’t resist laying the fender in place to see what she was looking like.
