Items of Interest - Old Labour Rates
« on: November 24, 2011, 09:20:26 »
I was going through the papers for the car and came across the attached. Wouldn't be nice if we paid those prices today.

Question: is that something that MB likely to have issued?

I have a book from the mid 60's  for the US and, for certain, I would like to see those rates.

I have a dealers price book from the mid 60's. Hard to believe prices have gone up that much. The prices for parts change much more quickly than labor rates.
