The big clean-up and shuffle is now taking place with the Malibu requiring only minor work. What a job!!! Threw all the odds and sodds into the middle of the floor and I have been sorting now for two days. Guess I get an F for housekeeping! Must make place for the next project!

Not a real recent photo but I hear ya on the orginization thing, LOL. My car has been stripped and sent out to a bodyman for some bodywork and paint, but the shop is a mess and needs a major clean up, will have to post picture later. This is last years picture.
Floor is now clean. "Bushwapped" the floor! My 66 year old back feels like an 80 year old! Problem what do you do with the overcrowded shelves? Start all over again!
Hi guys I took the day off work to do some sandblasting on the front sheet metal of the 66 but it turned out to be kind of futile so I thought I'd join this thread. Here's my sanctuary as of today. There's a room on top of it with an old couch and an wood stove and a whole buch of old car mags and books that's looking pretty darn tempting considering the weather!
The exterior picture kind of explains why I'm not going to be doing any sandblasting today What a country!
I don't ever remember such a long winter. This is crazy. We cut the lawn and cleaned up flood crap tonight but I was freezing while I did it. Unreal....

I just realised looking at the pictures again. I wish I had a DOGBOX as nice as yours!!!
Yeah it took me three years to build it as I could afford it.(barely) The room upstairs actually didn't cost much extra, just had to get the trusses made to accomodate it. I added the outside stalls last year. Finally put heat in it this year. Handy considering the winter we're still having. Still Johann don't apologize for using your shop! Thats what they're for! Mine was uncharacteristically clean only because I was not motivated to do anything else in this lousy weather. You didn't see the storage stalls birsting with junk and my other old tubs. I'll send you pics of the other rooms if you are curious. its kind of cool to think that a guy as far as as you are is looking!
