You have more space than anyone I know Tony. We have a 2 car garage and a 12' x 20' shed. That doesn't work with 2 pickups, 2 cars, a motorhome, zero turn lawnmower, riding tractor and a bunch of junk.

BTW, the 67 Ford tractor is coming along. Haven't been able to find a wiring diagram but think we have it figured out. Trying to find belts is also a challenge. Don't think it will be ready for the snow tomorrow so if you want to swing by on your Ford 'SS' tractor that would be nice.

I can drive it down there now Hank. I put a set of Harley low-rider, long stem mirrors on it yesterday. It looks like a Mexican low rider bicycle with them. Looks like we got 4" of wet, heavy snow. First it rained all day, that turned to slush when the temp dropped, then the snow hit. I slid off the deck when I came out. Oh joy, Winter is here.

I just did a little yard/shop rearranging. I guess it's been a decent year. With struts, brakes, body panels etc. that I replaced, I took 1,800 pounds of scrap metal in the other day. I can move around in the shop again! I'd still like to sell one of the hotrods so I can move the Chevelle inside to work on it this winter. It's still sitting in the tent for now.

Im in the get rid of junk and hang parts up mode ,trying to get anything on the floor hung up or gone . I also have hauled one load of scrap and will probably do one more. It sure is nice to have a little more room to move ,be better if the 55 was sold and have even more room.

Link has a pic of Tony's tractor. It's a real tractor. I'll get a pic of my son's when it's back together.

I think it's clone, Tony has never produce any documentation.

Fortunately the sun melted all the snow off the driveway today so I don't need a tractor, today. Next week will be a different story.

I need a bigger garage to keep with all of you. I just have a over size two car garage. Maybe some day I will have a shop. Lots of nice looking rides and toys.

I am so jealous...I have a small mini garage. If my car was any longer, it wouldn't fit.

It took me about 25 years to get all these buildings put up. I came back from California in 1980. I built a 2 car, 28x30, garage behind my ma's house. I started working on HD's in that garage. In 82, I bought the house and property next door. All that time. I worked 2 full time jobs. Started building my HD business up and am a Journeyman plumber, so I kept my plumbing job. In 90, I built the main shop, 30x40 two story. In 92, we built the new house. In 94, I built the back shop garage, 28x 32. In 96 I built the 30x40 storage garage. I put an addition, 6x32 on the back shop in 2000. I put the 14x24 lazy room on the main shop in 04. The lazy room is where I have the computer, TV, easy chair, a couple of lounging chairs for guests and trinkets. The house has a 2 car attached garage on it.
