When all else fails, resort to a cliche! It's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it!

I just couldn't help but notice the similarities in your driveway/garage floor and mine. I love the set up. When I grow up (I'm only 37), I want to be like you.

Dude, your driveway is clean compared to mine. I've got a rear seal that just won't give in to my demands. I ended up having to put an aluminum pan where I park the old girl to keep the EPA off my back.

Wow, and I'm told I have too many toys......
I just moved to a larger house/yard. Got a 24x48 garage and still not enough room. On any one day, I can drive any of 4 different vehicles(depending on the weather and how much power I want ). Unfortunately the fifth is the race car and NOT too road legal. It used to be and could be again.

Oil stains..........LOL!! That's a guaranteed with any FE motor. Lord knows I have FOUR of them. They all have drip pans under them. Some are worse than others, but they all mark their territory. Shake, Rattle, and Roll!

My neighbor usually supplies any beer needed. I've failed to install a frig in the garage yet(hmmm, maybe I'll hold off longer).

You know, if we all put our heads together and invented something better than a rear seal to stop leaks, we'd make a killing.
