    Love the channel and the watching the work you put in. I am restoring a 59 right now and I am coming down to the end of this process. I may need some peices redone and chromed. Here in Florida I dont know of any options and wondering if you could share your guys info so I can talk to him about options? Thanks in Advance- Ed

    I think you did good $ wise. I paid $1200 each for for my 64 bumpers. Shop was in PA and environment costs are outta controll.....trying to force him out.
    Lonestar knows how to stay on budget folks.... costs get get out of control.......anybody who has done this knows the feeling!

    In Los Angeles area I just paid $2600 for about the same amount of parts (all metal, no pot-metal) for my 1960 Cadillac. Other shops had quoted about $4,000. Not too sure of the quality difference. It turned out good but hope that it lasts
