I have no idea what Ted Brito (user name Chistech) charges to do an interior but if he doubled it it would be more than fair. The interior on my '31 Sp. Sedan has been the most challenging, sometimes frustrating, time-consuming aspect of the too-many-years-long restoration process. Back when HC was still in business Ted was instrumental, due to his location and business dealings with HC, in getting me the interior kit at a very nice price. Ted has been an invaluable source of advice, pointers and encouragement to me. He is a busy fellow whose work is exquisite. He took time from his busy endeavors to message me on numerous occasions. I am indebted, grateful and humbled.
As an aside; Ted did the interior on Bob Whitmoyer's '30 a couple years back. Bob lives only 20 country miles away but we hadn't met until three weeks ago. We'd messaged and emailed over the years and it was a treat to meet in person and make a new friend. Turns out Bob and I share numerous interests aside from cars including Gettysburg National Military Park where I volunteer with the Park Service and Bob sometimes serves as a reenactor. Bob had nothing but praise and good things to say about both Ted and his wife. Given my experience with Ted I'm not surprised.
Best Regards,
Tom Barrett
