Is that all?
From FAQ on website of
dragon kit cars
quote:
Q12: How long will it take to complete a Dragon Kit?
A12: Using our Basic Kit(Frame and Body) and after acquiring all the parts needed to fully build your Dragon, here's a rough time table for Kit
Completion: You can completely build your Dragon to "go-kart" stage and drop your finished body onto the drivable chassis. I'd give
the body guys a week to get the car painted. My feeling is, when all parts are accumulated and in "ready-to-install" condition(after the
C-4 Donor suspension parts have been cleaned and rebuilt) you will spend 1 day laying out & shaping your tail-light, hood vents, gas-cap, roll-bar
and dashboard instrument cutouts, 1 day under-coating, 1 day installing suspension, 1 day installing engine/clutch/transmission, 1 day plumbing brakes
and hydraulics, 2 days connecting radiator and finishing out engine compartment, 1 day for fuel-cell and fuel line installation, 1 day for windshield
installation, 2 days wiring, 2 days doing carpet/interior, a lifetime of driving.
Yea, right!
Cheers

You can do it quickly. You can do it cheap. You can do it right. – Pick any two.

Joking aside, I think you could do it that quickly IF you did'nt have to build bit's from scratch or think about how to do it! I would
think you could build a Westfield that quickly if you really wanted to (might not be the best job mind!) as most of it is a bolt together job with
instructions.
But what are the chances of it's not being a bolt together well thought out package.........

Well I tried building my Locost in a week. Minimum two people on the build for 9-6, 7 days....
Got it so that I could drive it round the car-park but that was about it....
The rest took 4 years

Tell them about the bent treacle edges!
