Thats some fine looking work there, almost a shame to put a body on that frame and cover it. Is it just me or does Texas seem to have more than it's share of excellent trucks? Must be something in the water there........

Cool Wow! Meticulous detail.

Great idea to strap the diff breather hose to the brake hose. I think I'll borrow, er..., steal that idea.

1 high class project you have there! Your garage is just beautiful! I hate guys like you. How do you keep a 1 car garage so immaculate? Where is all of your junk, er parts, scrounge stuff, bench stock, air compressor, paints, welders.... You have another garage?

My garage is clean, but nothing but shelves and tools all along the perimeter. Would look like crap next to yours.

Ok here we go, first my shop is 22x30 with a 22x12 office in the back and I have a three car garage on the house. As you can tell I’ am sort of anal. As you can see welder is in the closet with drill press, and tools. My welding tanks are on the side of the garage with all my old parts. You can see one of my air hoses, tell you that my air compressor is in the attic and I have a lot of tool boxes. This is a working shop and I like to keep thing pick up. It doesn’t take a lot of money to be organized. It is just a closet with doors on it, and with junk in it, and you can see all my nuts and bolt are in basspros fishing boxes. ($2.99) each.
Its nice being able to put thing away, when you get done using them.
I’ am glad everyone likes my project and my shop. Thanks guys


Anything worth keeping is worth putting away
