I decided to do a build thread. As the regulars on here know, this car belonged to my Dad. He recently decided to move to the nursing home and so I bought his cars from him. this is a pretty low mileage convertible only 78,000 miles on it, it runs great. there is no real problems with it. but I...

another in the ongoing saga of doing stuff in the house so I can do stuff in the garage. if you guys don't think this kind of stuff belongs in a garage site I can delete it. but if you do I like to blog what I am doing for my benefit as well as so others can see what I struggle with lol...

I am going to do some work on my wifes garage. this garage is our "attached" 2 car garage, where my wife parks her car and my daughter parks the jeep. this garage was essentially added on to the side of the house. it was not designed into the structure but it is attached now. when we bought...

As the regulars on here know I have had this jeep YJ for about 8 months now. It runs great but it is difficult to start in the morning. you have to pump it and pump it. but once it fires, it starts right up and runs great. if you shut it off again and leave it for a couple hours it will...

ok, well this is not really garage stuff but it does lead to garage stuff so I will post some pics up. here is a picture I took after I had pulled about half of the old cabinets out. they actually don't look to bad in this pic but they are pretty old and messed up. there is about 3 layers of...

I had initially planned on moving my dayton heater from my dog kennel into the bathroom and just venting the bathroom into the kennel to provide heat there, but the more I thought about it the less I liked that idea. for 2 reasons one I did not relish the idea of having that dayton heater...

Hey has anyone ever been to Telstar motors in Mitchell South Dakota? My wife and I went there recently. It is a pretty amazing place. he has the most complete collection of shelby mustangs by any private owner in existence. and it is a pretty amazing restoration shop. the guy is in his 70's...

I poured an 18 x 22 foot slab of concrete 6 inches thick in front of my main garage door last saturday. I have been watering it down a couple times a day, it is looking pretty good. how long should I wait before I can drive my f250 across it to get it back in my shop? I have read anywhere...

I thought I would post a bit more about my shop. the bionic doghouse I have been in the process of building a man cave for 10 years now. I built a 24 x 32 foot shop with attic in nebraska then moved to utah, after five years I built a 40 x 42 foot steel miracle truss building. did all the...

I have committed to buy this heater off craigslist. it looks like a good deal to me. It comes with the vent pipes and thermostat etc. I can't tell what size it is and the guy I bought it from doesn't know. I think it looks like it is big enough for my purposes. He says it heated a 4 car...
