I cleaned up the "shed" today -- and the 55.... I'm building this car for a buddy that had a massive stroke. His wife rented a van and is bringing him over so he can spend some time with his car - in order to help rebuild his memory... and to get him out of the house. He's wheelchair bound now. So cleaned everything up - got the car on the ground... and prepared to get ready. Then I thought - gee - it hasn't looked this good for a long time - so took some pixs.
Mark thats a beautiful tree . The garage isn't bad either.
Greg can I move in , I'll abide by the sign and use the side entrance.
I don't have a garage yet but I can show you the new mortgage with the money to build it.
My wife threatens to make me sleep out there.... god how I wish she would follow through!!
BTW -- I thought the same thing about Marks tree -- how beautiful! The color is so perfectly even - top to bottom... mine never look like that! But then again... My cars aren't anywhere near his either so....
Here are a few pictures of the shop that I will be breaking ground on in the spring. It is a 22x48 foot shop with a full second floor studio apartment that will be used for a home office / man cave. I would love for the shop to be larger but what you don't see in the pictures are all the trees in the back yard that the wife will not allow me to cut down. The bump out on the side is for the enclosed staircase. The plan is to put a make shift paint booth and a two post portable lift from MaxJax. The model was done in SketchUp (by Google). It is the easiest 3d program to learn. With a few hours of tutorials from the website, you will have the basics down. I have been using this program for years since I am an architect by trade. Prior to going to school, I worked at a body shop performing frame off restorations on street rods and muscle cars. Once the shop is completed, I will get back to finishing my 68 camaro. Hope you guys enjoy the pics.

Pretty hard to follow some of those. It's not the nicest..but it does the job. Two car garage and high enough to use a rotisserie. One day I'll have a nice big fancy shop.
Before I added some storage racks. I hate that damn post right in the middle.
Added more storage
