I hate to say it but many shops ideology is that the value of the car plays a role in the cost of the repairs, which I think is wrong but I don't own a shop.

Why are you rebuilding the engine, gearbox and suspension/brakes?
Plus, I don't know where you guys are paying $200/hr in labor, but you are getting ape raped.
