I'm Back...

So I spent the last year building a garage with a house attached (actually it's not attached) We've moved in and I've completed the wife's punch list so now I can go out to the 4-car garage and find space for the '55. Winter is going to be fun and I actually will have room to finally finish building Cooter!


Ross and Bobby...Didn't drop off the face of the earth...just moved to Placitas

Congratulations on your garage! If you go to my build thread, you'll see how envious I am when you see my mess in the driveway...but beats not working on it at all How much of the garage did you have to give up to cars that run? Ha

Jack, You blew by me in your work truck on the way to the Los Lunas swap meet last Saturday. I was in my 4-banger S-10 so I couldn't keep up. Congrats on the new place! Your old garage was pretty tight.

Without pictures, it didn't happen. So, post up some pictures of the new garage.

Sorry Ross, didn't know it was you. Had to meet a guy at the Swap meet at a certain time to get a set of big tires for the wife's Rodeo. Right now the workshop side of the garage is a disaster...just barely enough room for Cooter but I'm starting to organize, build shelves, and wire and insulate. Want to get it "livable" by the end of the month.
