this is my work and play space it's a tight 22' x 22' , I work with an antique store and do repurposing and rebuilding primitive furniture , I collect license plates also. the main part of my collection is 1963 Iowa plates ( my birth year) I have over 550 of them,i also have every year of iowa plate .the assorted odd ball cabinets I have made in it are all from salvage with the intent of storing stuff and displaying licence plates [emoji2]

Good to see another Oldsmobile fan. The lines on that car are similar to our 65 442. Love those little truck lamps.
