Front end rebuild - what's it worth?

It's a 56 year old car. Depending on when it was last rebuilt and if anybody used any Never Seize when they did it, you have no idea how much time it will take to get it apart, or what you will find in terms of damaged hard parts (LCAs, UCAs, special bolts, etc.). Certainly insist that you use all new parts that are readily available and don't reuse what you can buy. Agree on a price per hour and keep track. regarding the last post, I'd ask your buddy with the shop to add his percentage and get paid for the work through him.
