New Business Idea

One big problem will be your "shop rate".

Working on hot rods, muscle cars and race cars is a highly skilled job. People that do it for a living charge a permimim for their services. Now you wanna make a profit off that and that is fine BUT it WILL require your shop rate to be even higher than most other shops.


The problem (as I see it) is this.

Your busness plan is basicaly all mark up.
That is a failed plan. Why would anyone buy your marked up parts?

We have the internet now days.

So parts sales are a wash.

Your labor rate will be higher than competing shops.

Not good.


Add in a classic 60s diner and you could REALY burn cash quick.


This is just my opnion but i do work on old cars for a living and I did stay at a Holliday Inn once....
