Default New Car Build Time

Can anyone tell me how long it takes to build a new ford, I think they all (utes,falcons,territorys) come down the same assembly line, but can't find out how long the process is,
from when the body gets to the assembly line.

The only reason I want to know is I ordered a territory titanium 10 days ago, my dealer said it was 2 days into its build, it'll be here within a fortnight -sweet thinks me, should have it in time for a trip away-NOT. Now he's telling me its getting painted! WTF?, from what I understand the body would have been painted days before it even saw the assembly line, so how could it have been 2 days into its build 10 days ago?

Could anyone enlighten me on the build process?

Thanks.
