My "shop find" Bullitt Stang!

[A12pilot]

Well..... let's see when the car was down to a shell, metal work was a complete one-piece floor, two lower quarter panel patches, and some minor patches here and there. I'd say maybe 60hrs in rust repair metal work. Bodywork, start to finish, is roughly 450hrs. Remember that roof? Wetsanding and buffing would be another 40hrs at least. Then add on top of that another 500hrs to pay someone to fix my screw ups! But seriously.... I'd say from a shell to finish paint is around the 560hr mark.... plus or minus a little. I know the Bee I had well over 700hrs into it, and actually lost count... but that car is as long as the Hindenburg with as many facets in the bodylines to deal with! "The curves, the lines, there's so many waves, ladies and gentleman...Oooh the Humanity!" Ahem..... where was I? Hope that helps and understand I'm not a shop.... or a professional ... or even know what the heck I'm doing! Your times may vary.....

Cheers
