History When is it time for a change?

Sadly, progress marches right over us. I have watched all of the similar repair shops in this area do the same. Best of luck

 

Well, this is the last update to this change thread. It's been four months in the new space, getting settled in trying to unpack thirty or so totes of parts and speedometer cores and get things organized.
Thought I'd include a pic of the new steps into the side door of the shop, since I got comments on my spare tire and siding step. Here's the before and after, my son did the work and I think he did a pretty good job. The mini-split heating and air conditioning system kept the shop warm in the winter months and only raised the electric bill around $75.00 over the previous months and last year's totals, I'll have to see what happens on the AC side this summer. Thanks to everyone who followed this thread and to Ryan and the Mods for letting me post it.

 

Well Rusty, the new digs have really started to take shape, it is looking like retirement is gonna be part time. HRP

 

Thanks Danny, it should keep my butt off the couch. There is a ton of stuff to do yet, and I've become the go to driver for picking the grandkids up from school. I must not be moving around as much as I was at the old shop cuz I've already picked up around 10lbs to add to my spare tire around my waist, gonna have to watch that. Hope you and Brenda are doing well.

 

Hey Rusty, I just found this yesterday. I think you did the right thing at the right time. I don't have any plans to come to CO anytime soon, but I want to thank you for your friendship and all we did together a few years ago... TR

 

Great to hear from you Tom, hope you have been doing well. I appreciate your sentiments and also felt the time was right. Charlie and the guys asked about you not to long ago. Charlie’s
29 RPU is finally running and driving and now we are tearing into a 54 Mercury two door hardtop. Be sure and let us know if you’re passing through Colorado again, we’d love to have you drop by the clubhouse. Here’s a pic of Charlie’s RPU. @Montana1

 

I have had two nice rides come by the new shop since the move, the pictures just don’t look the same as in front of the the old shop, see Montana1 pic at the old shop above.
