Thank you for the responses everyone. I will be restoring it and keeping it. Will post pictures of my progress.

Any advice on restoring it?

Thanks for the replies. Paid $25. My first vise. Wanted something vintage and Made in USA.

So I was traveling around from garage sale to garage sale today and came upon this: Give me your thoughts. What would you pay for it?

The flex is a great machine. Bought the new 4" backing plate for spot buffs. I think once you pick a flex up you won't pick up the GG again.

I know a little. It's a hobby not a job. I use a Flex polisher. Product lines for wash Duragloss, OPT ONR, Megs Deep Crystal or Megs Gold (depending on stripping wax or not). Polishes include Menz, Megs Pro line, 1Z and others. Sealant WG DGPS 3.0. Waxes XMT or DP. Took a break for the...

Great looking garage. I hope to someday have a two bay that looks as nice. I see that you are a detailing fanatic as well. Some DP and Blackfire products as well as a ton of MF's with polishing pads all in sealed totes.

That looks great.

Thank you everyone for the advice. I'm in Manchester CT. Local mechanics are charging $800 to $1000 to perform this job. The part that needs replacing is a $30 part. While I am not a mechanic I am very good with my hands and tools. Have swapped out engines, replaced CV joints, replaced hubs...

I need to work on the engine bay of my 97 Expedition. I have to replace a broken heater tube that goes to the back of the intake manifold on a ford 4.6 engine. The intake manifold has to be completely removed to perform this job. My problems are that 1) the temp here in CT is 21 degrees F, 2)...

I would say a bad/corroded wire. I had the same problem with an old Chevy van. Replaced the battery ground wire and never had the problem again.

Thank you everyone for your answers. Today I start putting in the boxes and running wire. Hopefully tonight I can start insulating at least part of the garage. It's cold this morning and I don't have heat in the garage yet.

They are not talking about the peel and stick type vinyl tile. This stuff is thicker almost like asphalt shingles. You use an adhesive almost like ceramic tile adhesive. I've put some of this stuff down in low income housing as it is durable and cheap. The light colored tile will discolor...

Thank you both for your inputs. I was looking some of the garages in the gallery and they all seem to have the outlets at 48".

I did a search and can't find my answer. I know that code for residential receptacles is 12 in center from the floor minimum. My question is, what does everyone recommend for the garage for outlet height?

It's looking great.

Jim, That is an amazing place you have there.

These are all great. I just picked up an old wooden Mr Goodwrench clock and Budweiser sign. Slowly looking for other stuff. Can't wait for the Brimfield Fair come spring time. Keep them coming. I will post pics of new acquisitions when I get home.

Like the title says, show off your Neons, signs and memorablia/collectibles.

I would have thought you used more rolls than that just based on quick calculations. Maybe insulating won't be so expensive a hit at one time.
