Hey Gang,

Building our new car is an exercise in patience. I purchased the new race car September 2nd, 2004. We are currently on day 292 of the build. The latest Estimated Completion Date is November 1. That's 425 days, and that's paying professionals to build it.

If I count the extra 2 months I had in-between blowing our motor on the old car, we will be down, out of our 914 for over 16 months. And again, this is paying for the car to be worked on, not touching it ourselves.

Help make me feel better. Anyone pay a shop to build a car that's taken longer?
