Ran out of shelf space trying to clean up my junk. Got a truckload together with 3 more trips to the dump to go. I built a big garage to hold all my stuff. Just as people promised, you fill it up with **** and soon run out of space again. 1st .... the dump...... next month, I'm selling off...

Glad to see you mowed the lawn, looks respectable. NOW, we'll knock on your door and welcome you with a cake. Can I bring my swim suit along?

Rain water pooling inside, on the garage floor, which leaks under the overhead doors during heavy rain storms. I got a downhill driveway aiming right to the door. The driveway contractor did a lousy job pictching the blacktop at the door. Guess I got to tear it up and install a BIG drain.

It measures about 25' x 50'. It's pretty comfy. My wife, a bunch of friends, and a very talented builder friend named Stanley, and I built it about 4 years ago. Best accomplishment I ever made next to marrying my wife!

My town frowns upon it when you have no firewall barrier between vehicles and inhabitants. Things like gas heaters, funaces, gasoline vapors from parked vehicles, sparks, spills, weird chemicals you got kicking around. All those things can conspire against you. The idea seems intriguing but the...

Check out ROTARY, the EVOLUTION models. Pay a little more but feel safe and secure with your pride and joy ride hanging over your body.

I used the gray plastic pipe ( I think they call it schedule 40 if memory serves me right). I installed it 5 years ago with no problems yet. The compressor is up stairs in a finished and insullated loft and runs at 230 volts and is limited to about 140 psi. Pipes downstairs run both sides of the...

I've bought many things in the 2 Massachusetts stores nearest me this fall and summer. I've ordered an engine run in test stand that's currently on back-order. Jury is still out on that one. It's priced way under the competition although I'm sure it's very light duty and will probably need...

You could build maybe half that size for $30K if you have a real professional do all the work for you. My garage is 25 x 50, 11 foot front ceiling with a 21 foot vaulted rear ceiling Totally finished with heat and A/C , running water, real plaster walls, excellent lighting, wired for 230v for...

After 4 years mine is lifting at the edges, chips very easily and the tires leave a brown tire print in it when the cars are parked for more than 2 weeks time. Is this normal? It was a new build and the floor had cured for about 16 months before being profesionaly coated by a company I hired...

I too have radiant heat and a good size Rotary 4 post lift. The Rotary Lift dealer's guys installed it for me last summer. They told me it was not nessecary to bolt it down as my floor is very thick and dead nut level. So far it's worked perfectly just sitting there as installed.:beer:

Rebecca....I bought my 4 post Rotary Lift from Lee at Lift Works in West Bridgewater. I think you eye balled it on Thanksgiving. His ph. is 1 800 392 6330. Send me an e mail and I'll give you his cell ph. too. It was a pricy unit but great quality. Their service is excellent too. I highly...

I bought some of those sticky papers (sometimes called glue boards) from Lowes last fall. Caught a ton o' critters with them so far. The heat and light inside the garage seem to attract them. I put the stickys under my tool cabinets, under the work bench, and inside the door openings at the...

I bought 2 new batterys and a new charger at Lowes two years ago. I did have to wait about one week for everything to come in. Did you try "Batterys Plus", a chain of stores popping up all over here. They've got everthing.

Yes it's a '71. Back when I bought it I really wanted a '69 as I loved that style and all the drivetrain options you could get. Alas I could not not afford one. Some years later I grabbed this '71 454. Still could barely afford it but glad I took the chance back then. :beer:
