Took sometime moving around the garage but pretty sure the cabinets have found their resting place now

The bottom cabinets have great shelving that is even on a slight angle so that small parts won't roll forward.

Very solid

The hinge on the "work order" desk is great and the inside is in good condition. It's tough to tell but there is even a fluorescent light underneath

Upright

Cabinets are making their way to my garage as we speak. Even more impressed with the quality and condition in person. Don't even know where i would start to find something comparable. The upright cabinet even has a light under the service desk. All doors work well and have "old school"...

Those look great. cant wait to start into mine. They are still sitting on a friends trailer 400 miles away.haha. Should have them in few weeks

will the steel wool scratch or strip paint ?

im kinda leaning towards leaving them. i might work over the worst one. now to try and find some dividers or small bins to put inside. I have a lot of fairview fitting boxes that can be trimmed down and might work

Tentative plan is to have a buddy print out a die cut decal and then shoot over it as a stencil. Not sure how it will work out but I will post pics as i start to tackle it

get a good concrete guy that knows how to use height pins to get it level where needed and sloped where you want it to. I have poured hundred of thousands of square feet, some with height pins and others with sloping level. Yes it can be done. 1/8" per foot is a good rule of thumb to get water...

Any more info on Autopar ? Was it like deco for GM ?

there are a lot of DELCO cabinets out there to use as a template but SHELL, GULF, WIX, SINCLAIR, TEXACO or any company that has more vibrant colours would be great

Uppers
