I,m just wondering how long most people take to build a streetstock. That includes building a new roll cage and all new bar work.

i supsose time would vary like every race car, depends on how much money you have and want to spend, how much ime you have to work on it, how many people you have helpin etc etc

I think it cums down to how fussy you want to be when building one as in how long it would take. The last car i built would have been between 250 to 300 hours of my time over 5 mths. The owner of the car would have put just about the same hours into it So it realy cums down to what you want at the end of the build a car that can take a hit and keep going ;D or one that fills apart..
