I had advance notice of its arrival and pulled and sorted all the previously cleaned and restored parts and cleaned the shop and everything in order to start the build soonest, now I'm put off a month. Shoot! Pictures in the next few days.

Absolutely go with at least 30 days, more is better, the longer it cures the better it will look longer. I have a friend that is an expert painter and he always advocates letting paint cure longer if you want it to be tough, look good and last.
Patience grasshopper.
