How many hours to build "Eagle" and how much do these cars cost??? 

1600 / 40hrs is 40 weeks. Pretty impressive time frame in my opinion. From first tube cut to out the door, that’s damn impressive. Loving the build too, Cheers 🍻🍻🇦🇺

You should make bullhorns for is new setup

@cjracecars most couldn’t wrap their heads around the fact that when you break it down into an hourly perspective and the skill that goes into this that’s ACTUALLY “not a lot of money”

@@Aaron_Hanson multiple employees help out on it so factor that in. Great build and congrats on finally getting some more subs and well deserved attention Cam.

@@hanktownsend7911 Quality fabrication skills are priceless. Its truly an art.

Yup, I can never understand why some companies are always so vague about prices. Same if you want to buy something on-line. The amount of hoops you need to jump through to get an idea of the costs are ridiculous.

Exactly what I said awesome vid

@@likilikiki I can explain.. People who are building these cars dont have to ask "how much?". They just ask "when can it be done?". The amount of people who email or call companies asking for a price, 99% of them can't afford it.

@@likilikiki So they can have additional costs after the fact, and so they can charge people whatever they want per car. They do it to kind of cover their ass in a way, but also to make more money.

Swanstrom did

Agree. Don’t think most realize just how much goes into them.

Completely forgot the title of the video because an add was playing when I read this. My mind said “ain’t no way someone’s surviving 1600 hours of labor. Maybe he meant 16…? But even that’s fatal.” Then the video started playing and it hit me that you where talking about these cars being built and shop labor hours

And if you have a wreck north of 240 mph you'll be DAMN glad you paid for the absolute best

So half million dollars complete

​@@tylervaughn6328not quite complete lol

We are trying to make it the best we can 💪🏻

@@CJRaceCars Quality is better but the levels need some work - the commentary is super quiet, the cars in the opening are super loud, and everything else is in between. Look forward to the next video!

Like He was in the same room as us. Perfect!!!

probably should move the mic up your shirt a bit

​@eliotmansfield I mean, maybe yea, but it sounds good at a good volume

Wldnt take ty 1600hrs to fab a tube chassis together tho either. dude does 12hr jobs in 3hrs like the rest of us Gotta enjoy the per diem rates tho, paid OT but home by lunch.

He told cleetus it would take him a year to build this car by himself. ​@@hyprjay

@@chucksherron yea, if he ordered the cad specs from china lmaooo it's a 2 week process fora stress tested simulated chassis and then it's purely fab time. I build mega trucks, I've built 34 full tube chassis in the past 4 yrs. Longest one was the rip off steamboat that took 30ish hrs to complete, and easily 8hrs were on the meritor to 20ton planet hubs. Lmao oh and wiring takes about 6-8hrs tops. That's including term x max with smart tech ecu's and push button 4 wheel drive lock. Currently under a 83 k20 on 18.4 rices cause keep snapping left rear axles. Just saying, no chance I cld justify 1000hrs unless u count me sleeping lmao

@@hyprjaythese fabricators are probably a few orders of magnitude more skilled then you. I doubt you’re fabbing 1/4 of a million peices

@@hyprjaystay in your place. Or show us some videos

From what I’ve found out they do that because they can change what they charge whatever they want. These guys seem extremely straight forward. No one is like this. Sandrail shops trophy truck shops pretty much any shop. They hook there homies up for cheap and charge normal people like me and you double the price to make up for the people they hook up.

It’s a million dollar hobby to start. Car, tow vehicle, trailer, spare parts and all the other things you need. Could easily jump to 1.5-$2 million depending on toter homes and stacker trailer.

If someone is avoiding telling you the out the door cost for anything they’re trying to sell you, they’re either actively screwing you or reserving the right to later on down the line. Either way, they’re not looking out for you and you should take your business elsewhere.

​@@mcb0b1 I mean it can be, you don't need to spend this kinda money to go fast and have fun. This is just the tip of the spork of the hobby.

@@nateemmett4485 absolutely. I think we were just assuming the costs to be competitive in this sport. If you are looking to just have fun you are buying a used car and not spending $400k on a new car.

The new Lamborghini Revuelto starts at $700,000 and ol eagle would smoke it! Sounds like a bargain to me. Lol

@@iancunningham485only in a straight line and it’s not fully furnished. Not that this isn’t highly engineered but I’d imagine designing something for drag racing would be easier.

A retro mod cost around the price and a race car is faster 😂

​@@13illyxmazeYou'll end up being surprised. Controlling multiple times the horsepower of anything that turns corners is much harder than you think.

@@bradcraig5111 not sure what you are talking about sorry

Thanks for the sub.

Let’s gooo 💪🏻

Same with Steve Morris and Dr Tune ‘em All and Starr Creations… lmmfao

Same here. Started from cleets car being built. But now can't leave. Lol I'm Definitely hooked on all the fab and info. Such a killer shop.

Cleet moves the needle! He literally got Steve Morris 200k subscribers within a 48hr period.

Came as a cleetus fan. Staying as a CJRacecars fan. Going over the back catalogue of videos when I'm nightshift

People who take pride in their work and know their stuff have no reason to dance around the price. “We’ll do it right, and we’ll do it right the first time - this is how much that will cost” is the best way to do business. Shop your customers. 👍🏻

@@Christopher_R ok sure

Thanks for the sub.

The actual chassis is 4130 Chrome Moly tubing that has to pass SFI certification. 4-link bars, control arms, pedals, and many more trinkets are Titanium but not the frame.

@@troy-from-cjrc Thank you Troy!

He’s definitely grown a hugeeee brand.

Airport, racetrack, helicopter, wo many engines and transmissions. And now he's going to build a new house. I hope he's making his buddies filthy rich. Depressing

@@OttoByOgraffeyThe 1320 channel just did a feature video on him . Towards the he said one of his business goals is to keep doing better so he can pay his guys more. He said something to the effect that he wanted to help them make their dreams come true.

@@OttoByOgraffey considering everyone in the crew has new vehicles, drag cars, and tons of other project, I’m sure Cletus is paying them quite well.

The crew is definitely getting paid.. they're a happy bunch

He estimated pretty right too!...1600 hours is 10 weeks(nearly 1/4 year) of 4 guys doing 40 hour weeks

Super cool build.

shiiiiiiid, I'd have to take out a home equity loan on my 4th mortgage! LMAO ! #doublewidelife

More like it's time for another vehicle giveaway.

Thanks for the sub. More coming soon.

Thanks for following.

Now imagine it around 150$ an hour... ooof

@@nasty3145 gotta have it to spend it first lol

​@@nasty3145they aren't charging $150/hrs. That alone would be 240k. Pretty sure they aren't paying -15k for materials.

@@johnfroelich2066 you don’t pay by the hour for these kind of builds. But it seems like you know that already. Any “hourly” rate would just be a breakdown of whatever

Thanks for following 💪🏻

40k in 1990 was almost 100k in today's money so still a decent chunk of change. But ye everything has definitely got more expensive

@@yota8325 For sure! I had a Mustang built in the mid 90’s with a back half, 14 point cage, glass nose/doors and trunk fitted for $13,500. Good to 7.50. I thought THAR was a lot! lol!

🙏🏻💪🏻

XL pedal lol

Awesome we have been trying to get the audio right. We will definitely be at the track to support the first few outings at least.
