Wow, been following this thread for well over two years now. Keep up the good work Phil, I especially like how well you are keeping track of your time and expenses.

Thanks. It has been an experience. I don't think I want to do it again. People ask me how much longer it is going to take and I tell them between 7 and 10 thousand dollars!! Don't ask me how long that is timewise because I don't have any idea. If the building industry hadn't tanked I would be a lot closer. At least it isn't costing me anything to sit in my shop.
I may even be able to get the frame straightened by swapping labor.

My biggest fear is that they won't be manufacturing gasoline any longer by the time I drive mine ...Oh well, it's the journey and not the destination....Right?....Right?

I have a five gallon can full with Stabil added so I can at least drive mine around the block when it's done.
