How long does it take for a 777 to be built and out of the factory, how long it takes to be painted and then how much longer before actually being delivered to a customer. 

Of course depending on the paint job and possible issues, these numbers can change, this is based on the average build  time for a 777:

From first part to out of the Boeing factory in Everett: 49 days
Time in the paint booth: 4 days
Flights and testing: 30 days
Total from first part to delivery: 83 days
