Wow I love the theme! And the hot rods!
Now that youve had the epoxy floors for about 8 months now, how are they holding up and how are you liking them?

Thanks! We'll now that I'm fabricating and working on it, it's better than any coating I've seen but will scratch or chip if abused

Good to know. My concrete just got poured yesterday and planning for an epoxy floor myself. Looks really nice!

I will say that filling expansion joints was way worth it, sweeping up is a breeze. As for the chips, it's kind of like when your new car gets its first chip, all the rest don't hurt as much lol

The nighttime shots are great, especially like the one with the lit up palm tree in it.

Hey Don! Yeah your right, I found one for 900 in North Carolina but won't ship. Found more from 2k and up. Prefer a beat up one I can restore but....
I've been busier than ever with work and when I can the 57 gasser.

Very sweet. The lubester is a very nice touch and I really like the paint job.
Is the light above coming out of the the lubester?
That bird in front of the pumps is a great shot
