Re: My 52 GMC Build
I've been considering a drive on so I can park 2 cars in one spot and make more use of the room.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
You have a good idea for a garage. I’d like to have a lift but a ride will suit.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Shop Update: So Friday A big box showed up in my driveway!!!
Saturday my boys and I lifted the 2000lb box into a 4x8 trailer using my engine hoist and pulled it back to the shop using a lawn tractor. My good friend Joe came over and the 4 of us got the Hoist set up, and in about 5 hrs had it going up and down. Then Sunday I brought my Jeep in and put it on the hoist for a test before parking it in it's spot, then brought my 13yr olds Jeep in. I also put my DD '87 Jimmy in for some service this week. Shop fills up but 5 vehicles and still room to work. I'm so happy now time to play. Making a nice purchase for the truck this week.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
In case anyone needs a long time to plan. I am planning on going to the AD nationals in Franklin Indiana next fall Sept 15th. I'll arrive on the 14th. Maybe we could get a bunch of us there?

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Lower, first, the hoist looks great. Are the walls temporary, to keep items away from the vehicles. I would love to go to the AD nationals, but it would be hard, will see...Jim

Re: My 52 GMC Build
what and upgrade, you deserve it. I'd love to go to the AD nats. Guy that bought my 49' lives 20 min from there. I'd love to drive out and meet him and whomever else from the board, but I gotta get my 51' back on road. Be a stretch to meet the deadline. can't believe you can fit 5 vehicles in there.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Amazing how the walls close in after you move in, Looks great congrats!
My wife told me I could have a 100' X 200' and I would still find a way to fill it up. LOL.

Where there is a will there is a way. It is actually a '75 CJ6, Jeep only made 55,000 of them and most did not stay in north america. Quote:

Ya it's not as open for sure. I still have way more room than I ever have had. For sure I could fill anything. This is my dream size and I'm like a kid in the candy store.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
It's awesome that you have 5 in there and can still have room to work. My 28x30 can only have 2 in it and do that. Shoot, my 39x40 is the same way thanks to the center divider wall.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Truck Update:
Ordered new rims today for the front 18X8 Mob wheels artillery low gloss white. That should change things up a bit. They will get here in the new year. Then I will paint the duallys to match.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
I like artillery wheels and almost went that route myself. I didn't realize Jeep had a CJ6. Just saw the extended wheelbase and assumed it was an 8. That looks longer than a CJ7 also?
I had a '53 Willys with the "F" head engine and rear mounted PTO. Wish I still had it.

I don't remember seeing you post this video, but I ended up on the Built Not Bought youtube channel (redirected from "B is for Build") and came across a truck that looks familiar...
