    'Lords of the car hoards' or 'Rusted Development' or, as its called here, 'Extreme car hoarders'.. now theres 'reality' tv at its best :lol: The scripted added drama is even more obvious on that one than all the others. AP- Whats the worst that could happen?.. they would pile all your stuff in...

    My 23x12 uk garage

    Some new additions to my Grand one and a half car garage. I treated myself to the neon clock and the red Sinclair sign.. and i got the Full service island, Mobil and Standard signs from my daughters for Christmas (with a little prompting). Its just possible that this place might have had...

    I hope i didnt offend. Thats maybe a bit of a UK perspective.. the Chrysler PT and modern Jeeps are about the only US cars that have sold in high numbers in the UK as theyre practical everyday cars and were/are made available with the steering wheel in the correct place (im not including Korean...

    My 23x12 uk garage

    Thanks!.. yes, im keeping a close eye on what that Don is up to, we could definitely have some competition there if he just ups his game a bit. ;) AJ's is open as a Diner yes, and they do Jive classes and Rock n Roll nights with live bands (better than dead ones) and car shows. I did ask...

    Don, your garage would make a great location for American Pickers.. even more so once the Western Town is built. Anything you refuse or agree to sell them would be pre-agreed or if you dont want to part with anything im sure they would bring some things along for you to 'sell to them' in return...

    :eyecrazy: We're all suffering from total sensory overload! In all the time looking at your photos i dont think i had ever realised that the Sinclair gas station & the Diner are one and the same place.. or if i had i didnt manage to store it in my overloaded brain. Is that Soda Fountain sign...

    Love it!.. you make all our dreams of what we wish we could do into a reality. Let me think about that :bounce: YES PLEASE!!!! Is that waiting list for moving in to your garage getting any shorter?.. ive got my bags packed and sleeping bag rolled up ready. Im nearly in my mid fifties now so...

    I hadnt noticed that.. the V shape layout kinda mimics the roundness of 140 S. Van Ness. :thumbup: Hopefully they will have the planned museum and drive in cinema open opposite the Centennial Plaza by then. :cool: Im thinking cut the miles down so theres plenty of time to look at stuff.. and i...

    How many floors are you putting in that shed?.. stairs or elevator? :) The footprint of that little storage shed is half the size of my 'big' party garage :bounce: Off Topic Alert!.. (aka lateral geographical and interest based thinking).. Have you seen this?.. American Graffiti meets Route...

    I hadnt realised it was larger than life and larger than life. I watched this last night.. Great viewing if you havent seen it and you have a couple of hours to spare. We are all about Mince Pies in the UK at this time of year.. and no, confusingly, 'mincemeat' doesnt have any meat in it...

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    The more i look at it, the more hypnotic it becomes.. i think its because theres nothing in it that should be moving to provide a reference point that its a still photo so you could actually be standing there half expecting a light to flicker or a cat to wander out of an alley.
