Initial plan might not be the best way to word it either. We're an indecisive bunch; Ron just happens to be the most vocal about it. :lol:

My initial plan lasted between three and four weeks. Bought the car in April, and somewhere around the beginning of May I went into a hot rod shop to get mini tubs, coilover conversion on a stock sub, and Global West leaf springs. I left with half a DSE catalog having spent 60 percent of my budget :faint:

Man it's nice having your own shop and equipment!!!!:rofl: :rofl:

current PT personal car took 4 years from the time I bought till I was driving it still sorting out though ( first Mopar ) must be the tax. already started next car 69 camaro bought at unique performance auction few years ago been collecting parts for a while now

I love this style car maybe one of these days i will learn how to drive LOL:cheers:

no doubt about that.

Guilty. We all pretty much suck in our own way. :lol:

I would suggest the length is not the question. It might be more appropriate to ask compare to your expectations, what is the multiplier to actually get it done:wow: Mine was about 4X, some do to my optimism for things to get done and some to my changing of the vision or plan and some to redoing work I sourced from the wrong person.

Well said.

Two "Old Farts" and 5 months
 

Like it says, Two Old Farts plus 5 months and here we are. Just Exhaust and fuel tank left and fire it up. Not a major crazy P/T build but not easy either.

Wow! :wow: 5 months...you guys must be retired and I'm betting you don't play golf.

Very impressive! Love that Red. :unibrow:

Beautiful car and I agree someone has little to do but work in this car. Having said this the real questions is not the pretty pics, and oh just one more this to do.... send the post when it is on the road or track, push, held up and you say **** yes I am done....really around this stage of putting it together.
