Seriously, I found a youngish guy to weld up my '48 Olds Cutlass Frame. We discussed at length the how's and what's of it, but when I asked him about price, I could tell he was at a loss. I don't have a clue what it should cost myself. I don't want to cheap him at all, but I don't want to way overpay and look like a sucker either. He's pretty excited about working on it as is.
Is 15-20$/hr for labor a good rate for an on the side job like this? I'm doing most of the prep work and getting materials, he'll be doing the actual welding and there will be some on the spot fabrication where it is needed. Would 200$ be a respectable offer upfront?
I'll leave it at that fer now. Time to eat.... [P
