My goal is to restore the office and exterior to 1950 specs with period correct Pure signage, pumps (nonfunctional), etc.

The armada of '62s will reside on the street level and the basement will be for storage for parts or friends' cars.

I already have hidden cameras installed both on premesis and on the neighbor's...I pay his cable TV bill, he lets me install cameras on his property so I can see the shop via the WWW whenever I want.

Anyway this is going to impede car project progress, but all my life I have had AT BEST a 1 car garage.


A great restoration project with alot of history attached. Better get your equipment in there before it gets designated as a historic monument and you won't be able to make any changes!

Good luck-

Kurt
