Oldest build?

[snail81]

Could I have the oldest build project around here? I started building my 16x20 workshop/garage in 2006. Dang just thinking about that makes me cringe. I saw a nice building in my neighborhood that an older dude had that was bricked that matched his house. I said I have to have one like that. Being the cheapskate that I am I decided to build it myself. With a past history doing construction I figured it wouldn't take all that long. Boy was I wrong. I paid someone to finish the concrete but I formed it and did all the dirt work myself.
Right now I have roughly 400 bricks to lay and paint it (again). I guess after finding this sight it might help me get on the ball and finish.

I started a 61 Chevy truck in 1987, it now sits beside the shop under a cover with just the cab and bed on the frame.

I started my Falcon project in 1974. That's cheating though, hot rods are never "finished"

Longest running, or oldest?

I built an addition to the barn about 1967, when I was laid off for nine months. I dug the hole, mixed concrete in a wheelbarrow, poured footings, laid block, built the whole thing.

And in those good old days, I did have to get a building permit, but I never saw the inspector then or afterward.

Thanks. I think Madge (named after my Grandma, whom I inherited it from) is gonna be a fun car.
