Pretty nice and a major upgrade.
I wouldn`t have minded your old one here on the farm for some more storage. What did you do with it, sell it or tear it down?

It's going up really nicely!

It measures 33x24 and 10ft walls. Its got 16x8 and 9x8 overhead doors.
I hope to have the electrical and siding done by the end of this up coming weekend, then its insulation, drywall, and paint(Floor Too), and Radiant Headter install and about wraps it up.

I am all for a meet before summer ends over here, we can deffinitly have a garage warming get together, and BBQ

That looks like a beauty of a garage, what are you going to do with all the extra space.

Painting the garage floor is an excellent idea, wish I had painted mine when it was new afew weeks after it was poured before oil and other stuff got on it.

64 Mustang is a very nice addition to the fleet. I seen one at the Ford/Merc sho'nshine a few weeks ago it had the 260 V8, I think that is the first time I have seen one in person.

64 1/2 I believe was the first year.

Sounds like a cool car, and you know we need pictures of that!

As for the garage it sounds like your really doing it up right. 10 foot walls would be great in a shop that size.
