Learn how to do your own paint and body work. Most of the money you spend is for their time. You can save a bunch.

Learning how to do it yourself is the only way I can think of without seriously degrading quality!

I am kinda old but trying to do everything possible myself.

I will pay to get a transmission built and do a certain degree of engine assembly due to tools required and cost of errors.
