I see way too much room to work in and no mess on the floors, the place makes me sick (I like using the puking guy)

Man, I really would like to have a lift in my shop. I guess I'll just have to settle with the forklift truck.

Man I am worse than a kid with a new toy, was not planning on the lift this year then my friend called and said he was selling his lift, trailer, 72 Challenger, 88 low rider only to keep his Harley Springer three wheeler and I just couldn"t pass it up, the wife even agreed then when she say the BEASTT outside she even said it looked good, now I know she wants something and it ain't me, HA HA.

Yup, I too have major shop envy going here.

I couldn't help but notice the fine customization and attention to detail in the choice of upholstery.

Thanks for the updates
Bobby

That's a really nice setup you've got there. Someday I hope to have a garage like that. I bet the lift makes an unbelievable difference when working on stuff.
