Should only be driven when Finished, not possible for a lot of us. Once our car was ready and safe enough took it around the neighborhood to get an idea of how everything was going to work together. Each time the car was taken out the confidence was building and the drives longer.Each time would find things that were not quite right.Car was driveable after 3 yrs finished it in maybe 5 yrs. The two yrs of dialing the car in for example,changed out to aluminum heads and intake,custom built racing headers, upgraded to Willwood brakes,5 speed Tremec,regeared 9",redid interior to all leather etc etc.
