Claiming victory! Shop is done.

[rklein383]

It has been a tad over a year to finish my shop. From tearing down a monster shed, relocating a lot of crap, to self-building the shop including self-electrical work, to building shelves, and a huge work bench, and finally a whole lot of organizing, I am now claiming my shop is done!

Congratulations, looks like you're slowly out growing it already.

I have a fair amount of stuff that will be going up for sale and/or donated. I bought some overhead pulley set ups to hang bikes overhead. Goal is to keep shop always available for at least two cars.

Yup, ya gotta have goals- good luck with that!
Seriously though, congrats on "finishing"- like any project, it can be a long road. Looks good!

Congrats, and imagine how much room you will have when the orange (brown?) Bug on the right gets moved outside or squished.

My son and I have been working on it. It is running 100 degrees hotter on the left bank than the right. Switched carbs side to side and the temps swapped. Appears to be a carb issue. Kind of has my head spinning.

Nice cuda. Hands down the best looking muscle car ever. Im getting anxious to get started on my 71 (cloned 74) cuda.

I modified a set of mounts from a 82 Dodge pickup to accept the Sanden AC compressor. Here is a picture during mock up.
