No offense taken Datec. Really a good correction to that sentence. I know a couple restoration shops with 10+ guys and a Hershey buddy has a body shop with 30 guys. Those are the smart guys making real money while a manager runs most of the day to day. Us small shops making wage are limited to the amount of time in a day we can physically work or lose interest.
I have a lot of cars roll through here for mechanical repairs and I can relate with Phantom works on that end of it. Some of his stuff is over embelished because it's a TV show and they need drama but I see a lot of unsafe antique cars fresh out of restoration and purchased at auction. Just last week I rebuilt the front suspension on a 57' Cadillac Barittz that was assembled incorrectly. The lower control arms was missing an end cap and the remaining ones were never assembled right. Couldv'e dropped the whole lower a-arm out of the car.
