Ok so here is the question of the day. I took all my window tracks etc to let the glass man see where we were exactly. A lot of my stuff is junk (no surprise, the back windows never worked and the car was in ****ty shape to begin with). The estimate including glass for materials was 3028. I gave him 1500 to order the stuff to get started but here’s the kicker. That quote only includes basic labor. Anything above and beyond like adjusting the tracks etc is 85 dollars an hour with no cap or projection. He is the ONLY classic car glass shop anywhere near me and he has a sterling reputation. Next nearest glass shop that will do it is hour and a half away and some of the things I read on Google and yelp as far as reviews frankly scare me. Seeing as how my bodyman was only 40 an hour is this glass man crazy at 85 an hour? I’m stuck with it but I just wonder how bad y’all think this is. I’m gonna probably have 4/5k in the glass and I’ve only got 25k in bodywork, paint, and chrome.
