Work on Boeing 707-320C

Learned contributors,
assuming 1 shift working c8 hour shift per day how long would it take
A) To do a full strip and repaint on a Boeing 707-320C ?
B) To carry out a full D check on the same aircraft ?
Assume paint scheme is fairly simple white top, mono colour cheat line and fin with logo.
Thanks for your time and trouble.
Be lucky
Davud

At BCAL we used to do a 707 D check in 6 weeks, but that was with 30+ people on days and 15+ on nights working 6/7 days a week 12 hours shifts. This usually included a paint job.
So I guess with your one shift doing 8 hour days you would be looking at 12+ weeks depending on how many people you have.

Presume your time is also affected by what your D check finds. Perhaps 20 years ago it might not be much, but if your working on present day and aircraft age you might have numerous jobs to do. Is this a text book project or are you planning a resurrection!
