I put 3 pics together with Photoshop, so it looks bigger than it is. Still its 36x46 so its not small. Can fit 4 cars in to work on them at once, so thats nice.

Considering everything is done in here, paint, body work, engines, transmissions, general repairs, and a bunch of my extra parts are stored in there, its crowded. Right now a 67 Cougar and a 71 Mustang fastback are down to bare shells getting rebuilt. Just got the Cougar painted last month, its got a 98 Pontiac red on it, and the 351C is painted Pontiac metallic blue..

Once the Fords are done, a 65 GTO goes in for a frame off. After that is the 70 GTO, then the 72 Formula, and the list goes on. Have only lived here two years, and on disability its tough to do things fast, money is always short and productive days are not often. Nobody else touches them but me, a little help from the girlfriend sometimes, so it takes a while.

If I spent all my time tidying up, I wouldnt get any work done. If I spent money on checkerboard floors and purdy stuff, I coudnt afford to rebuild all my junk.. So function comes way before form with me. After 20 or so are done, then I will fix up the shop all nice and purdy..

I have one wall to insulate yet, this winter it will get the foam we used on the ceiling.





The rides waiting on the list.
