Default New "Car Barn" - The Latest Geobarn
Here's a familar theme... "I've been lurking here for a couple of years..."

Last summer "Bull" from this board posted some pics of his new garage that was built by a guy out of VT (see "My Geobarn" thread). I was so impressed with Bull's garage that I decided to build one of my own. So now, I get to post some progress pics.

It's a 30x40 with a stepped-up ceiling in the rear half for a lift.

George (the Geobarns owner) has been great to work with. We've had some awesome weather and the building is coming along very quickly. You can checkout the gallery on George's website (www.geobarns.com) for an idea of what the finished product will look like.

More pics later this week.

This is a great site!

I love it! It's great to know that George is going to bring another one of these beautiful buildings into existence, thanks to you. You are going to love it, and I'm going to enjoy seeing your progress.

I met with George this weekend... If everything works out, I will be under-roof this fall. Thanks to Bull and Floyd for letting the community know about Geobarns.

It's been a couple of weeks since I posted. Things are moving very quickly and George expects to be finished early next week. This has been an incredible experience and I couldn't be happier with the garage (dubbed "the car barn")

Thanks - Your post last year made it possible. I doubt I would have found him otherwise.
