Projects finnished my shop this month!!!!

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by meatball, Dec 27, 2008.

  1. Well since I was laid off a couple of months ago I decided to finnish my shop so I could work in there when its 100 degrees plus in the summer.So we went down to the studs and rewired it,insultated the crap outa it and rocked/painted it.........then I kinda added the personal touch with stuff I've collected in the last 30+ years.its not completely done but here's where its at now.......

  25. WOW what a difference from what it looked like before. Now you have to build another part for the fiberglass and steel work on the C-cab and the next project you have lined up. I am sure alot of people here on the HAMB would like a update on the C-cab.
     
  26. there is a 12x12 building for doing messy stuff its right off the side door and the storage building back by all the model T stuff......it should be a roller by april ...but now I can LIVE in the shop if needed
