Question Building a JBL 427 Competition Roadster?

I am seriously considering the building of a JBL 427 Competition Roadster. I am looking for advice and comments from anyone whom has built one.

Please share any information relevant to my success or failure in this endeavor.

I would like to build this car from the ground up with a very complete set of parts.

How easy or hard would this car be for a total novice? How many hours? I work in a machine shop and can assemble mechanical parts but have no body work or engine/transmission experience. Any suggestions?

Can I purchase all the parts shown in the Stage 2 package unassembled? I would like to have the experience assembling the car without having to spend time hunting for the parts. I know that searching for exactly the right part is probably half the fun for some people but I would rather spend the time in construction. I spend much time hunting for parts in my regular job.

Thanks in advance for all your advice.
