On both of my metal buildings on our property we absolutely took this into consideration . I would not it accept it . If they Pre drilled the holes properly it shouldn’t be a big deal to re install it correctly .

Who built your gangway? Nice looking build. Brett Alexander

Just thought I would update you guys on this. I called Garage Pak yesterday and ordered all of the tubing and fittings to plumb the whole shop.The main trunk will be 1 1/2 " feeding 7/8 " drops. I will post some pics when I have it all installed. I would reccomend Garage Pak to others in the...

I think Klein makes some very nice stuff. I have a few of their pieces and they are great quality That being said, I have an interesting Klein story to share. When I was in high school , I got a job working for glass shop. I had no expereince, but was willing to learn,so I worked with...

I think this is agreat idea. My dad was a Snap On dealer for several years. I have his first Snap On top and Bottom box that he bought used in the mid 70's. I just started using it for a machinist box, so I was cleaning it out today. I found a nice variety of antique Snap On items in it that I...

Very imrpessive . I have a decent Mill and lathe that just sits there un used. I had a customer who is a machinist come in and go thru all of the tooling to see what I need to get started. That thread sure gives me some inspiration. Thanks for sharing.

The IM 51 preceeded the 5100. It is a fine gun, not sure on the specs. I have a long shank version that I like.

Yes that is a Pantera. That is a customers car that we just finished doing some engine mods and installing fuel injection on.

Not sure if I have any underhood pics ,if not I will get some tomorrow. The conversion was quite easy, as I built this thing from scratch. I started with a bare frame and built from there. As I said, when I started it I was on a very tight budget,and that was the best option for me. My next one...

No 302, no 351, it's got a threefitt..... threefitt.. threeefifty. I know, I know,but when I started building it my finances where very tight, and I had that engine all ready to go. It is 5.7 TBi , roller cam, .030 over. It made a lot of sense,as I wanted to run a 700r4 anyways. It is a 76...

I have never used the Summit cheapies. I have this one, manufacteured by T&D Machine ,and have been very pleased. It covers a very wide range of differentials, and they will custom machine pieces for you at a reasonable priec if needed. http://completeoffroad.com/i-122837-pinion-depth-tool.html

Very nice.

Thanks for the kind words. The yellow boxes are my personal boxes and that's just how they came from Snap On. The larger box is about 11 years old,and at the time Snap On only made a very limied number of special color boxes. Now they are quite common. I am very fond of the wooden sign. I...

Heres some shots of , toolboxes and machine room.I have lots more, but I they are too big to post. I will get some outside pics tomorrow. The lighted BowTie came from the old Chevrolet Dealer. The owner let me have it when they built their new place. The Wooden Bowtie is handpainted and from...

Some more of my prized gas pump and Early Bronco.
