$650 for a 6 pt moly is very cheap, $1400-1800 here in Chicago.

Wow that is cheap (650.00) What is you turn-around time on a CM 6 point. What is your hourly rate if you dont mind me asking?

I paid $1400 for my 6 point chromoly with the seat braced and belts mounted.
The guy I went to is known to be pricey but does great work

Looks like we need to raise prices. 650.00 will get a 6 point moly cage installed. we do not do the interior work or paint work at this rate. Turn around is 2 weeks or less. We can add swing outs.

On the tubs, we are at 1500.00+ for a full tub. For 500.00 you get a partial mini tub. That will clear a 28x10.50X fine. It is close on a 29x10.50. The full tub is of course a lot more work and effort. The tub work does not include any paintes surface work.

My car already has a 6 point chromoly Wolfe roll bar in it and it's been mini-tubbed to fit a 30x10.5x15 Hoosier Drag Slick or 29.5x10.5x15 ET Drag with no problem. I was trying to price my drag car body fair and it's clear those 2 items pay for itself.
