Please don't hate me guys I have been inspired by everyone on this great site and appreciate all the knowledge you all have shared. Look at it this way you guys will have a machine shop for all of your custom parts. I plan on machining a lot of custom stuff for the 56 (aka..Gertrude) and will share every bit of the build with all of you. I will try to get pics of the shop on here tomorrow.

note that if the images themselves are over 2meg, then FTE will reject them.
you will have to size them smaller. I use resize in MSPaint.

Not a hater, I got no complaints

Not braggin' just stating the facts: 2 car garage + 30x30 shop + 15x20 3 sided lean-to. I am just finishing building "in" a 12x15 enclosed area inside the 30x30 to heat, cool and as a clean work area; wished I'd built onto not in, would have been about the same amount of work. BTW the 56 is in the 2-car while my daily driver sits out in the weather. Once I do a little more arranging I should have room for the Mustang and truck in the shop (allowing for mowers, ATV, etc.) with enough elbow room to work a little. Its only taken about 40 years.

Nobody here hates you for having a great place to work with all the toys to do everything, but not having pictures is a different story. If you don't figure out how to get them up you will see some real hate.

Here is my small woodworking shop with my truck in it too. And I am in the middle of a large residential high rise cabinet job. But you can see what takes priority on a Friday...

I have always loved old cars and trucks but never really got into it until I built a woodie for a client out of a '40 Chevy 4 dr sedan.
