The SHOCKING PRICE of Restoring a Classic Car Today

You all have seen restored cars being sold on Autotrader, Facebook Marketplace, Swap Meets and Auctions and have said to yourself "They WANT HOW MUCH!?"

I hope with this video I get to clarify what it takes to get a car to a high level restoration.

Restoring a classic car is not for the faint of heart or people on a tight budget.

It is shocking to people that have not done this in a long time or have never restored a car just how much money, material and time it takes to get a car to that showroom look.
I do a simple breakdown of what I feel this decent 1969 Roadrunner will need to be a quality restored car, All the parts are new and from common source, the labor rates are from what I have found online and fromm people I know. This is a representation of what it takes to restore this car to original. It may be more or less but I feel it is close.
