I don’t know your particular situation but most car builders take over a year to build a turn key car. It is usually not the car builders fault. When building a new car you have to deal with so many venders. If just one vender is behind they can hold up all progress on your car. I would not be worried. Keep in contact with him and try to set a deadline. Every off-road car builder right now is on back order.
Thats true but I belive he said a year and a half PAST the deadline? In the off-road industry communication and customer service are very very important. So I hope for him this is not common. Anyways I have no right to past judegment but was it a year and a half or a year and a half past a preset deadling?
I was talking to a couple of guys in La Paz, and he had a bro that "WAS" having a car built by this guy. WOW what an experience. bottom line is he paid 50 or so grand and had a couple of seats to show for it after 6 to 8 months. Constant lies about the progress, he would show up unannounced and he would be shown someone else's car that was no where near what he ordered, he was trying to get his money back, wasn't having too good of luck, I don't know how it turned out.
Ive heard a couple of stories like this. The market is going to (is) slow down, the big bucks from seconds on homes is gone and the market is sliding along with the boat market, and its guys that don't perform and are good enough business men to plan for slow times will be around.

I ordered a Potter car 2 years ago. What a nightmare! The car took 1-1/2 Years to build, I was told 5 months. After countless Lies and BS, it simply was the fact that he had NO Money to build my car, because MY Money built the car 5 customers ahead of me. You know, like a Pyramid Scam. I personally know of 4 other customers, all the same strory. One of the customers actually had to go to court, and yes, he won. After I finally got the car, there were several problems, including electrical, steering geometry, shock set up, etc. He Refused to fix anything. I took the car to a reputable builder to fix all the problems, then sold it, while I still could. My car never even touched the dirt. Iam shocked he's still in business.

Well,Ithink he has that dude by the carrot, I guess when your car is basically paid for I guess he not feeling to pressured to finish to get paid, as for a first place at terribles, Ross was bobbin and weavin all over, even if you wanted to pass him he was takin up the whole coarse.
