my small space. 2 car garage. hey, its better then the 1 1/2 at the old house. Never could figure out what the hell a 1 1/2 car garage was!

 

Heh, some pretty nice setups hanging around, with some nice iron sitting in them.

I think I was just frustrated yesterday...we've got one too many cars in there, which means my frame jig is all shoved over in a corner. I was trying to work on my frame,

and had the TIG, MIG and plasma cutter all in one place, damn wires and torches and **** EVERYWHERE lol. I spent at least as much time unwrapping tangled cabels as I did workin!

 

Mines a tip, almost 4 car but generally a mess, I need to go down the cars and related stuff only road and get all the stuff other people own outa the place, currently it has..... 55 Olds, 62 Holden in basically one peice, A coupe and roadster front 1/2 ****tered all over, rear cut of a 55 Chev to be made into a couch one day, a couple of extra Olds motors in bits , a spare Hydro, a spare holden motor, a stack of x plies....... and largley the rest of its junk )
oh and by now hopefully one dead or dying rat !!!

 

The old shop...



And the new one...

 

wish i had a pic for yall but we've been working out of a very cool, old airplane hangar in NJ for the past few years. we can fit about 20 cars! unfortunatley the small airport has been sold and we are losing our space. if i could paint a picture here it is. 10,000 sqr ft. 25 foot ceiling, its midnight, no heat, wind making all kinds of sounds, lear jets taking off and landing, stray cats milling about, odd sounds that u hear between grinding and welding that make u think someones there. in the daytime parachuters floating down and land in the parking lot, steam coming off the floor when it rains in the summer, tunes, beer, loads of vintage amu*****t park memorabilia strewn about, mannequins here and there, the oc***ional rockabilly models doing a photo shoot, a pile of engines and a bunch of 20's fords in various stages of completion. damn im gonna miss that place.. got alot of ideas and work done there.

 

Poured the concrete footings this morning - Just imagine a pile of bricks surrounded by sand in a smallish back yard. Will have running water, couch, fridge, loft storage and the makings of a 32 highboy roadster in red oxide primer....

 

The m***ive Rocky, Garage-mahal complex..........

Now this is my best "NORDIC" accent.... SVWEEEET ROOLF!!!! OFFFTA!

 

How tall are those side walls - Planning mine. Momma said it can't be bigger than the house . Guess we shoulda bought a 2 story instead of a Ranch.

HillBillyHell - I do not know if anyone could say it enough. The phatom 28 just kicks ***. I was just reading the article about it last night.

The beginnings of the new digs in Santa Cruz (I just moved in about a week and a half ago)

Thanks to Snacky for helping get the 31 body out of the trailer....

 

Mine's in a mess at the moment toooo many projects

 

This is what my old 24x30 shop looked like before I finished the new 30x40 shop,,,now it has turned into a catch-all storage area! HRP

 

Here's mine, sorry for the clutter













Ummm, yeah, right.

 

Actually, I was just kiddin' earlier...

Here is mine, I am also sorry for the clutter !

 

The other side:

 

I should have built it bigger...

 

Hey Rolf, garage looks great, but what the hell are all my cars doing in there?-MIKE

 

Geez, you guys ****, what with your fancy roofs and walls and all.

What about us "outdoors" wrenchers, I know I can't be the only one unfortunate enough to not have a garage.

Maybe I should post of picture of my oil-stained driveway....

 

AHHH, A damn fine mess. This was a printe companys whare house. We remdeled the offices and print rooms up front into our living room and bedrooms and two bath. Hell with a garage behind the house... We got a house behind the garage.

 

never enough room.

 

Whaaaa....?
