Now imagine doing the inside after stripping all the components.

Nothing to cheer about.
Yeah, Bobbie, however: if it is simply being returned to sit outside and go through the deterioration process again, why bother with the inside? For that matter, why bother at all? What a colossal waste.

I wonder what the invoice would look like if the vehicle had been transported to Franklins in Woodstock. Given that a similar hull of an SPG was done there for less than $2,000.00 it makes me wonder if we got the facts straight on how the $250k is to be spent.
