Will be 4 years in March, but I hope to have her running by the end of May.

I'm doing as much as possible myself, since I enjoy it, but to get the shops with good reputations takes waiting in line...

This iteration started when my son and I started disassembling the car for paint in December 2012. Went to the paint shop in September 2013, came back to the house painted in June 2014 and is now slowly coming back together. I bought the car in 1988.

I have had my car about 5 years but was slapped stupid by the protouring thing about 3 years ago. Its fun doing the upgrades but have to go as fast as funds allow. Going for the biggie this year with suspension and drivetrain. Recently ditched the gf so should have plenty of time. Lol

3 years 2 months for my wifes car, but I did take a break here and there to get re-energized. Unless you have your budget up front and not doing it yourself, 2 years is very quick IMO.

It takes time to do things right.
