Hotrod & Restoration interviewed a sample of shops in each of the following sectors of the automotive industry, uncovering their average hourly labor rates: Builders/Restorers/Fabricators: $61 per hour. Engine builders: $72 per hour. Machine Shops: $70 per hour.
According to the research done by Triton Polling & Research in the Van Nuys, CA area, the average labor rate is $74.03. Thirty body shops participated in this survey, and helped back up this research. The minimum labor rate is $45.00 and the maximum rate is $125.00. Although labor rates vary in the US, this information should be almost the same in other rural areas. This survey was done for the Collision Repair industry so that there would be an understanding on how much the labor rate is and how much it should be.
