I was at this website and it has some pretty good pictures of restorations in progress. I have a time question for those of you who have done this. Given a non-rusty example of our car, how long would it take one person to disassemble and reassemble the car with the intent to do an entire color change. I realize there are variables that out of our control, such as rust repairs and the time its at the paint shop. This would not be a concours resto, but a "take it apart" to clean up and do a color change (interior and exterior). not something I want to farm out because most of us here can wrench pretty well. What is the ballpark amount of time given an 8-hour day, i.e, .how many months would it take a lone person to do this project, subtracting out the time for rust repair and paint. I look forward to this as a retirement project. |

If you buy enough beer and meat, you can have club members come over and disassemble it in a couple hours.
