Finally grabbed some shots of my setup....... One from inside...

Meet Britta, our Shepard....

Here are some shots from a few years ago from my old garage... The Mustang.... Here are me and the car in action. These are from the second half of '08... The Fairlane...

My garage is a little bit bigger....although his will have heat! That's pretty much what he told the nieghbors by the way....

Wow! Killer build...Love those garage doors also..
