shop pix.

I've been looking at alot of the threads on here, and have to say alot of you guys live in some beautiful places around the country/world. I see alot of big shops ( butler building types), but I don't see alot of small shops (1-2 car shops) except for maybe the garage on the house. would it be out of line to show pix. of some shops where these trucks are built ?

Re: shop pix.

Re: shop pix.

and my fave thing is the view form the front door. we love to park the truck and turn on the radio and just chill out here. gotta love missouri cattle farms.

Wink Re: shop pix.

This is my 2 car garage that I have now. Back when the truck was first bought everything was done in the carport. Didn't have any garage. I hung tarps up and used the kerson heater to work in the winter time on it and other stuff .
The truck now has a nice parking space inside after about 20 years outside.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: shop pix.

I built this shop and it is small 24x24 and this is a photo of when I put the new leaf springs in my blue and white..


This was a another project that I was working on and then had to sell because I found out the frame was diamond ..


Another photo in the shop where I had the bed off and installed a rear gas tank,,not to bad for room ,,but always thought it would nice if I had more,,



This Vette was the first one I worked on in the shop before having the trucks.. I did have lots of head room and that was because I built it tall enough and with doors that swung open that allowed me to get my back hoe in to work on it ..



But ,,now I have moved and am selling the place shown in the photos above,,but I do have a 3 car garage now and room for my blue and white.. guess thats all that matters,,lol

Re: shop pix.

There's a very successful thread like this one in the Shop, tools, and safety section of the board.
