He does most of the work himself, pretty amazing, but it you know what to look for it falls apart, compared to full blown resto.
But his prices are very reasonable, so you get a good value compared to the price.

Should also mention if he were to get a badly rusted car and rebuilt it using ALL aftermarket parts e.g. hood, fenders, rad. support, valances, quarters, floors, trunklid, now you can even get a firewall! And of course the interior can be mostly bought all new. Not much left to restore as far as original sheetmetal or interior. So all the hard work is avoided more or less and getting 'er done is alot faster also.. there's your "aftermarket car" done in 2 months for 20k labor and 30k+ parts
so then the parts price tag is be pretty darn high, the day has come where labor is much less than parts
