I checked with another source about the labor of 9.5 hours and was told that was about right. After thar I will tackle the glow plug issue. 2show open and 1 show 2.5 ohms.
Estimate doesn't seem out of line, but I'd plan a couple hundred more for replacing brake lines if you live in rust country. Have the shop check under the rubber brake and fuel line line holders for rotted lines.
