Not a hope in hell of finishing in that time mate.

Best advice is be realistic and keep it simple. Expect it to take as twice as long as you think and to be at least 25% more expensive than you imagined.

Have a look at this http://www.stevecarter.com/build/build.htm

From Steve Carters website (Pistonhead 'er) it was always going to be a long process for him due to the remoteness and it being a bit different in terms of construction but his blogs contains al the obstacles you are going to meet on the way. Its a fantastic read so have a look.

I've just ben sucked into this website and agree it is fascinating - well worth a few hours of your life.
