      Built a workshop in my backyard

      The shop in my backyard is finally built. This is the first time I've ever had all of the cars in one place. I used to have four separate storage units in two different locations. That sucked, I was spending almost $1K a month for storage.

      The building is 40x60x14 tall, and the outside overhang is 12x60. Both the open and enclosed trailers will park under the overhang once I'm done moving crap from storage. The Rotary 4-post lift is on a friend's trailer for now, just picked it up Saturday. I'll also get a 2-post lift and some industrial shelves to sort all those boxes, then I'll be set for now. Whew, its been a long wait!

      You know you still suck dont you?!!? Lol looks Awsome Tony!
      Although, I am VERY dissapointed that your driveway is clean, and I ain't talking about oil spots either!! A concrete drive that flat, smooth, straight and long should NEVER be that clean after the car gets home!!! Heck, you could VHT a full sixty there and be good!!!!




      Next pics you show had better have stripes in them if you call yourself a "car guy"!!!! LOL!!!!

      Very nice! Now you need to to get all your tools and parts organized. That jumble on the right needs to turn into toolboxes, shelves, and workbenches.

      Good job, Tony, glad you got your shop built. Now you've got room to play. Going up the driveway at the old house with some of those cars would have made me cringe. Is the new house finished?

      Looks good... but man this is HOUSTON!!! Air circulation is your friend (Door at opposite end, fan... something). That's assuming you'll be working in there. If just storing... maybe you don't want much circulation.

      JP, that mess of boxes and tools is just from being unpacked. I'm looking into pallet racking and a small forklift, as well as plenty of shelves and work benches.

      Sam, you will be happy to know that the new driveway is nearly flat and none of the door entrances for cars have an edge. That includes the house garage. You will need to bring the Firebird over when you get it done. Pics:
