May 23rd to May 31st-Reattach body to frame
June 1-June 18th-Final Body Prep and Paint
July 12-August 1,2011-Final assembly including wiring
I believe I have factored in enough contingency to allow time to finish the tasks taking into account other activities (non car related) that need to be taken care of..I also determined yesterday the schedule was necessary to keep me from too much "think time" consuming my waking hours considering project execution options. I feel better the schedule is down on paper and ready to be executed. (and managed to)
The most aggressive aspect of the schedule is the final assembly component. I am anticipating I can gain some days through the earlier part of the schedule to allow for an earlier start day and longer elapsed time to get the final assembly completed.
Hopefully by May 7th I will have the mechanical components sorted out so some decisions can be made about disposing of the 1957. I need to determine condition of the transmission/engine and rear end of the 1959 before the '57 can be moved out of the driveway.
