    Five glorious years from pick-up at FFR to state inspection... then I had to wait through winter to actually drive it on the street.

    Loved every minute of it and when it was done it had everything I wanted. Often, people say "they're never done," but other than some de-bugging and tuning the first summer, mine truly was done after those five years.

    Or as Steno puts it - half-a-decade.

    It took me 6 months to build, paint and title my Cobra in 2003. I put 5,000 miles on it in two years and sold it, now I'm back and want to build a '33 Hot Rod.
