I don't know how many folks they have lined up in the queue, though. Even then, estimates are only estimates and a lot if can be outside their control. I remember a couple of people at Connecticut Custom came down with the flu during my build and *poof* an extra month got tacked on to the project.
Hey, I could wrong, but Tim's 2136 took a really long time. He did do a few things differently too. His build thread started from the body coming out of the mold on 8/28/09 and completion at ERA, not including delivery time, on 3/20/11. That doesn't include the time from deposit to coming out of the mold. That's about 19 months PLUS!
