    Okay, Here is pics of my new shop. If I could ever get the power Co. to set the pole I could start to work on my crap again. I haven't worked on any of my cars in 3 MONTHS!!!:mad::mad: I am going through withdrawls! Anyway, I have been moving all my parts and projects over there, from across the street in my old "little" shop for the past couple of weeks. The new shop is 40X60 with a lean to that is 15X60 on the north side. Inside there is a loft that is 12X60 for storage and at one end I have an office hide-a-way. I am ordering a lift for the SE corner tomorrow. I am still trying to figure out where everything will go. I sold my big building downtown a couple months ago to fund this project, but it is already over budget. Planing to have a BIG Party/reliability run here in the spring if I can get everything ready. It sits on 3 acres and I want to fill it up with rods and customs, Details to follow later!

    Here is the front from the street

  15. nice shop. i see that you have tall over head doors on both ends....so you could pull straight through with a car on a trailer. my brother did that on his , says it's the smartest thing he ever did

    My guess is that the power company used up all of their surplus power poles in your recent ice storm.

  30. very nice ..????
    does the white fence keep you contained or the naybors out
    .... have thr power co. add the extra pole now for your next new bldng ... and save !
    wheres all your stuff ?

    were you thinking you were crowded before?
    you only really need more room when your work areas are piled to within a foot of the roof..
