worked on my intake and sold a car for my buddy.

the plan is to drive the car to a car show in santa maria ca memorial day weekend. that is about 350 miles from my house. I have collected a lot of parts already. so as long as I stick with it I should be good. thanks for the compliments I appreciate it.

it was worth the effort!

we host thanksgiving every year and actually used to play ping pong quite a bit so I am fine with keeping it. it is not a huge deal. thanks man I am actually proud of myself as well. I would have never installed laminate flooring in a garage and I was actually going to rip it out. everyone...

so I am pretty much done! here is todays progress. my wife wants to keep the ping pong table. I will put the last of the bikes in the shed tomorrow. I sold three bikes on craigslist today. I hauled 4 truck loads of straight garbage out over the last few days. I still need to organize the...

Thanks man. I am done buying and selling for a while. The 41 convertible is a bucket list car for me. It is about time to also build cars with my two sons. So hopefully that will keep me busy the next few years!

I clean it with simple green from the dollar store. It typically cleans pretty easy. And I agree I started looking into coatings and race deck style products. I can put a new laminate floor in probably three times and still be money ahead. So that is what I intend to do.

todays progress so far.

I traded the galaxie for the shoebox it has been gone about two years. here are some pics for you. this is what it looked like when I bought it.

yeah I drive on them. use jack stands, cherry pickers I treat it just like a normal floor. they do scratch but I don't worry about to much. my hot water crapped out about a year ago and that bubbled some of it. I plan on going on lumber liquidators and buying something on close out to replace...

the shoebox went to a good friend of mine. It had to go so I could buy the mercury.

the ping pong table is going for sure! as well as the wood bandsaw 4 bikes that nobody rides. it is going to be a big purge for sure! the floors are laminate the prior owner installed them his daughter taught dance classes in the garage. I had planned on ripping them out but I actually have...

so I am a borderline hoarder. and my garage is out of control. I am posting this to hold myself accountable. here is the current state of my garage. And todays progress. I still have all of this mess left. my basic plan is to clean al of the garbage out and then organize it. I...

I belong to a facebook group and one of the main guys runs a gw truck. He appears to be doing really well. He has flash deals on stuff all of the time.

not sure if that was for me or not? it is laminate so i can sand and after my water heater crapped out and flooded it it is pretty hammered. plus i plan on a complete redo of the garage in the next few months. i am ditching the crappy cabinets, adding sheetrock and insulation, paint and new...
