Mechanical in a mechanical shop starts at $90. We do not get that rate. Ours is about $75. Frame is $65. Body and, paint runs @ $48 and, materials is $33/hr. We're working to bring some of those numbers up a little right now. Heck, we had an approx. 20% increase in material cost last year and, not a bit of increase in rate.
