Body work and paint

One thing the car was a GM product black engine bay, under coated, No paint inside car or trunk saved tons of time . Just outside paint and jambed.
Someone else stripped it and blasted
Us guys have to by yourself disassemble, bag box and restore every part to make it cheap enough to do it.
Just the hours alone to scrape, grind, sand, wipe clean. So epoxy, then high build, sand high build, high build again. Before base and clear goes on those area's.
Just think if they would have done the engine bay, inside the trunk, underside hood and trunk, plus inside the cabin that was not done would have taken.
Car would have been an easy 4 times the amount of work if the above was done
