I participated in a seven day "Vacation Home Build" on my car in 2007. My then sixteen year old grandson and I - along with factory help - did the work. We were driving the car in seven days.
We started with a rolling chassis that we assembled at the factory and then brought the rolling chassis home to my shop to complete the build.
The initial build took a little less than 400 man hours to complete.

Cool vid, thanks for sharing.

Quick tip... you can put the youtube code between tags to embed it on the forum.

Eg, <yt>Yht8Yk51qN8</yt>

...except replace the angle brackets (<>) with square ones ([]) if that makes sense.

I originally took 6 weeks including paint and header fabrication.Assembly of the running gear to the frame took two days.....a week end. This was not however the first Cobra that I built. I am still driving today. Also I did not start ,or test drive until everything was completed, then I started it up and went for a drive, with everything working.
