  1. Hey everybody! My build threads have gone stagnit so I thought I would show why. Besides working a really good job now that is night shift we just bought our first house, I don't have a garage/shop anymore but I'm gonna enclose the carport.
    Today I brought all the hot rods home under there own power. So here's some fun pictures for you all and I will try to get back on my build threads when time allows..there is projects in the woodwork.

    If I'm not mistaken looks like you've got a gopher to deal with along with everything else.:cool: Hope I'm wrong.

    Glad to hear that. Sounds like you've got enough on your plate without fighting gophers.

    Cool cars and a truck, very cool house and car port!
    I was curious about the tanks on the hillside?
    I assume that those are water storage tanks?

    First, congrats on home ownership. It's not easy these days. I hope the job lasts and you are able to build a future for the little ones and yourself.
    Second, it looks like you've got a lot of things to take up your time in addition to a night shift. We will be here to cheer, guide and warn when the cars make their way back to the top of the to-do list.

    Looks like if you closed up the sides of that car port you’d have a hell of a shop.
