I've read all of the Overhauling section, and know a few people in various stages of carrying out a similar task themselves, and know at some time I will be doing so too, (albeit a rolling project for me). A bare metal full rebuild seems to take Joe Public some where between 2 and 10 years.
Just wondered if anyone had done a realistic calculation of man/woman hours that went into this work? I understand it was carried out over a weekend, and that plenty of planning must have gone into parts and paint sourcing in the run up to the big weekend.
So ignoring the couple of people who were probably on the phone for what must've seemed like days at a time in the planning stage, "How long did it take in person hours?"
This information might spur people on who have done all the hard work, and get them motivted to push that little bit harder to get the project closer to finished. It'll also highlight just how hard the people involved worked!!
An amazing feat in my opinion.
