Re: E-tek Resto's 56 Chevy Truck Just have to chime in - fantastic work. Looks really great and so detail oriented! Love it. Good luck with the balance of the resto - I am sure it will be great. R.

Thanks for posting - those are exactly what I sat my **** on during my 7th grade mechanical drawing/drafting class. Imagine that, as late as 1988, my HS was still teaching this. It was a great class - did hand sketching and then mechanical drawing on Draftsmans tables. Learned to print in...

^^^I agree. The most action that I ever see at my local Sears is in the Automotive/Tool section followed up in Appliances. There are already standalone Sears Hardware & Appliance stores. Would they dump the balance of clothing, electronics, etc and open more of these? I don't think the...

That e30 cleaned up great! Love the garage space as well. Nicely done. R.

Nice space and like the shop vac idea too! I'm over in the Glen Allen area. R.

Hi John. Nice project - just saw the thread and say welcome to VA! Each time I have moved, the weather has been been an improvement - started in Pittsburgh, then Eastern PA, and now outside Richmond, VA - much nicer. Summers can be a bit humid, but you can't beat the nice long Fall and early...

Great shop - love the custom lettered signs above the garage doors and the others as well...great looks rides as well - I'm partial to the red 'Vette! Randy

Hey Chip. I'll drop you a PM, but from my screen name, I'm a huge '60 Vette fan and local here in Richmond, Glen Allen area. Love the work you did on your shop...Looks fantastic. Quite the stable there. The '60 in the pic has been in my family since '62 when my Dad bought it. It's still in...

Thanks for the tip...gonna order (3) for me tonight! Almost pulled the trigger on these before they were on sale, so put me in the happy camper category too! ***Update - just placed my order - picking up from the local Sears 5 minutes away! Randy

Great work and cool rides too Zach...have you checked out the restored 1930's Auto Shop thread here? Sora of similar starting points... Looking forward to seeing more. Keep up the great work! R.

Hi There... Excellent job - first saw the Terrible Towel and new it would be good! Z looks really clean as well. Like the space alot - have time to carry over the floor treament and wall painting into the remaining bays? R.

Fun stuff...put a kit like that we got at Costco together. Same deal as many here - saw the cost of install was almost the same as the cost of the product, so it became a DIY job... Did ours over two weekends...been up for now it's 2nd season and will probably need a re-stain next summer... 3...

Real nice garage and collection of '60's there... Our '60 Vette is Horizon Blue w/ White coves, so fond of that color combo for sure. Randy

Nice haul...love the workbench...as for the dishwasher, had to laugh. My folks had a GE model almost exactly like that - same color, same butcher block top...it was a portable that got wheeled over from the corner to the sink when they would run it. Only used it for "special" occasions... My...

Hi There. Nice to see other r3v folks here! I go by VA85eta over there - don't post a ton though. Like the updated cluster in the iS - garage looks great too. What engine was on the stand there in one of the shots? Here's a shot of my bone stock '85 eta -I'm the 3rd owner and bought it...

Hi Thomas. Thanks for sharing so much detail of the shop restore...it's a truly fantastic read. From the items that you saved from the original shop to new touches you have added, it's been great fun. I've really enjoyed it and can tell from your posts that it was a labor of love for you and...
