Well, that is I was kind of afraid of the answer! Right now I have 38 hours invested in the tractor, (plus my dad has 4 or 5)
Like Jon said, I think that a "properly" restored tractor takes a lot of work, however as you guys know, I really bust a$$ on my projects, and if you recall, this spring I completely tore a 2N down, and restored it in 3 weeks!
I told her I wanted $25 and hour, and that would pat my normal working rate of $20 an hour, plus shop things, like wood, electricity, etc.
Keep in mind there is still some work left, probably about 5-10 hours, so we could estimate in the end that I personally am going to make about 45 hours at $25 an hour, so $1125.
I think that is pretty good for me, but next time should I bump it up to $30? What do you guys think?
