I waited 13 years to get serious about my build... don't wait. Do a little everyday or most days, even if it's only an hour. Take her out often though! (Your wife, not the car! Lol)
Good luck!
Luckily I got most of the parts with the purchase of the car which keep costs down. I figured if it's not to crazy of a swap and I have all the parts install it if not then I can hold off. But I'd rather only have to do the driveshaft once.
My wife and I have 3 kids it's hard to go on many dates especially with the youngest being 2 months old .
