      Man Hours??????

      I am in the process of doing a 67 Pro Touring Firebird build. The body was completley disassembled and sandblasted . New floor pan,trunk pan sail panel roof and quarters where installed and primed . The inner and outer wheel houses where left out. The body is welded to a rotisary already. Could anyone tell me about how many man hours it would take to Install mini tubs and close the trunk back up ????? I am going to run 335/30/18 on 18x12 rims out back. I know there is some work to be done with the rear frame rails.Just trying to see if this will fit in my budget???

      I seem to remember 40 hrs. being the average shop time needed for a mini-tub job. It's been quite a while since I looked into it so I could be wrong.
      I'm sure someone who has done it themselves will post their experience.

      If there is a hard way to do something, I'll find it!

      If it was stripped and ready to go and leaving stripped I would charge 25-30 hours if I didn't have to seam seal, prep and prime.
