Glad to have you back. Now you need to get pictures of the new garage up and also start making lots of progress on your truck.

Yes, good to have you back. Agreeing with the good folks above that a garage is never too big, it'll fill up.

Jeff, we paid the house off last year and I've been thinking about the new shop. 3 or 4 bays with one a special "display" bay. It will be like an old gas station with the F1 the featured vehicle. I've been gathering old gas station crap to decorate it.

Great news Jeff! My garage is 60' x 22' and it is jammed with woodworking tools and my '54 Panel that I haven't done much on since I got it. I need more room but it won't be here unless I quit the woodworking business. Right now I just can't afford to as business is way too good, so good that I haven't touched either of my trucks since last April. I can't wait for some time to actually work on the trucks again! Good luck with your add on and your truck! I am guessing that your work went well, you have been gone for quite a while.

Hi Jeff, more space to work on projects and storage is always a good thing.
