    Show off! I'm out of space in my 20 x 24 garage so 2 buds and I are renting a 2000 sq ft building with a hoist for 400 a month. We have electricity, but need to figure out a heating set up. Should be a good way to kill some time until the snow melts and we can drive me again

    1931 Dodge Brothers business coupes. I have had the primer red three window since I was 15. I just turned 60 a few days ago. Still looking for parts for it. I have owned the dark blue one for about 8 years and is my daily driver.

    Picking up a dropped axle next month then going to thrash on getting the frame fully welded and done during my winter break from school so I can play with the drivetrain.

    I'm anxious for winter break to get here. :)

    Thats probably the best part about Living in South Carolina, I never have to stop driving because of salt or snow. last winter was super mild, we only saw two days below 30. Hell, today was 80 on the coast
     
  14. When I have something running I drive year around here. I probably wouldn't drive in a blizzard but those are few and far between.
     
  15. 8 cars and 6 stalls, i am gridlocked and cant move
    could use another enclosed trail;er to store another car

    WHO did this to me ???????, oh just bought another last week:eek::eek::(:mad::cool:

    Mines' empty, i had 2 protour cars to build and they have both cancelled. I had to start advertising, even for drag race tub jobs and rollbars. pathetic.
     
  19. Just two. Tbird restoration metal work only. Moved my Stude in and set her on a new ch***is. She should see the street before winters over. Soon as the T bird is gone the camp trailer moves in.

    After so many engine issues in my avatar, this time I rebuilt my own flattie (well, it as a partial rebuild as the valve train needed no work at all), and I've nailed shut all of the problems to the point that I can finally consider the build done. Now I can move on to my 40 Ford p-up project as my everyday driver, with a 32 5-window that needs a ton of work waiting in the wings after that.

    I've been on winter upgrades for a couple weeks now. Removed the rear bumper on the Austin in my avatar and built nerf bars to repalce it. That meant I lost the lights in the bumper, so added lights in the lower body to fix that. Still have to get carpet built this winter, and a few other small things done to get it closer to finished.
    I spend too much time driving it, and having fun, so winter is crunch time!
    Also have a little newer OT Camaro that needs a little spiffing up, so I can sell it this winter and finance the next build.

    Not much room in my little shop, so this will be my project. It's a Cushman. Do you think I should chop the top?
