Re: 1949 P3 Restoration help!

I know it's difficult but could any of you estimate how much you would be willing to pay for this work below as my mechanic's estimate has increased by £2500 from what he originally said (he had looked over the car). Thi...

Re: 1949 P3 Restoration help!

Wow Mike - at £3.2K for a complete refit to your car - £3000++ just for headlining seems even more ridiculous!! Lowest estimate for headlining so far is £1000. I've also been quoted £1500 per week for seats & headlining and it'll take 3 weeks work. Can't afford £4500 + materials! Where are these pri...

Re: 1949 P3 Restoration help!

Thanks for replies guys - I thought £3000++ was a huge amount to pay (obviously wasn't going to go with that trimmer!)

So £800 maximum for headlining. What about re-covering the seats, what's the maximum I should pay for this?
