I know for me I started my build thread in July of 2010. Since then I have had a MAJOR eye injury and built a pole barn. Interesting that I actually have an appointment with the eye doctor today (just a followup).
The wife and discovered early on that building my car in our two car garage was NOT going to work so well so we built a 40x64 barn for me to work in. You might be asking yourself how I went from a 2 car garage to a 40x64, well all I can tell you is when the wife tells you "I don't think you'll be happy with a 30x40 I think we should build a 40x60 you DON'T SAY NO!
Of course now we are busy paying the barn off (should have it paid off by May of '14). We had about 1/2 the funds to build it or so we thought but then like most project we spent more than planned! Surprising I know!
So now that the barn is done enough to work in I have no real money to invest in the car. I have been doing some work here and there but progress is slow. I rather enjoy working on it as I don't get to work with my hands at work much anymore. I would like to say she'll be done in 3-5 years but I'll leave the timing up to God on that one. Currently my goal is to have the shell ready for the chassis by next winter. We'll see.
Well that's my story I will be interested in hearing what others have to say.
