So I'm watching American Restoration and he charged a guy $4800 to restore a u select it. I'm thinking that is a little high... I guess it was a shell, with no mech or base, but really?

And yes, I'm sure he found the entire mechanism at a flea market!!

When I watched I noticed he charged about 5 grand for everything... Boared with that show now...
still watch Pickers from time to time... But I noticed these 3 kids in my house so I spend time with them since the
weathers nice... and I bought a 1950 Studebaker...
