just thought i would share with you guys how the garage is coming along, i still have to pic up my compressor and a few tools yet from a friends but other than that a few more shelves and put the tv out there yet. and believe me this place will get a workout. first car to come in is a 70 monte ss for a resto then 2 68 camaros, not sure when i get to work on my truck but soon, anyways to the pics!!!!

is that a kawisaki 50 and a honda with no tank?? that green on the tank looks familiar. I think i spotted the honda tank colors on top of the mini fridge.

Shop looks good. If only i had a roof like that, or at all.

It looks like that wheel is a "Offering to the Gods of Speed" hanging on the wall...

The shop looks sweet!

Arad68 · 04-18-2008, 04:20 AM

That looks like a 55 Chevy Grille hanging over the door. I like the rim for the hoses. I have a "spinning" wheel that I will use for mine. One less on the road.

Your Garage looks good.

Please keep us updated on that Monte. That's my favorite classic car. My first car was a '70 Monte.. you know the story.. wanted another one ever since.. should have kept it.. heh

Also, if you run out of room for that Miller I'd be happy to find it a new home.

Looks like a Kaw H1 & a Yami RD without the tank. A '70 SS Monte would be a sweet toy to own! Nice garage BTW...

nuke1 · 04-18-2008, 07:03 AM

thanks guys, and yes that is a 73 kawi h1 and a 72 yamaha 350. i have more elsewhere. you guys have an eye for parts.

Bowtie7ty · 04-18-2008, 07:05 AM

Lucky, Im still waiting to build ours this summer so i can pull my 71 in and start on it. Off topic but whats the color of your truck?

nuke1 · 04-18-2008, 10:52 AM

the color of my truck, well , to be hones i painted it 11 years ago and at the time i just mixed a color without writing down a code, so matching the color now is not all that fun, have tried the camear on it but no luck. it is kindda teal or aqua if anything. it does not matter anyways i have to repaint it again anyways because some kids keyed the whole thing last year, leave her oustside once and bool look what happens. later.

GRIMSS · 04-18-2008, 02:50 PM

Nice garage. I hope to have one like that started soon.
