Early A restoration on TV

Last night they did a 64 Barracuda. Car looked good and the guest was real attached to the car. Needed interior work and had a rusty front fender. By the time they finished, they uncovered a larger area that needed repair. They said they spent 700 hrs on the car and I don't remember the parts cost, but several thousand dollars. Long story short was the cost for the restoration was like $65,000. Car looked awesome, and the owner was thrilled. When they removed the rear window, it was the same story about being irreplaceable, and if they broke it they would have to find a new job. Was interesting though!

Think he said parts cost was $21k. I can't remember their exact charge for labor but I want to say it's $90/hr.

Comes out to roughly $84k.

They do good work but that's crazy.

My only real gripe was the BS about the rear window. What is with these shows trying to drive up the price of those windows? They were like $100 a few years back and people couldn't give them away. Now they're acting like they are irreplaceable parts and the prices these days show that.
