Painting the garage

I'm half done painting the garage. What’s done looks killer. I hung my banners and race signs, has the speed shop look I was going for. Now I just have to move everything to the other side to finish it up. Pictures will follow once done.

My Dad just retired (auto mechanic) so he brought home his work tool box. He was going to through out his old box but I told him I wanted it for the history. This box has some cool old decals. He has an "I Drag at Islip Speedway" sticker and an old Kooks headers decal from the 60's, definitely glad I kept this... I have some vacation coming up after Thanksgiving so again pictures will follow.

Well I finished painting the garage a little while back. I finally took some picture. Late May I hope to get the floor done. I have that floor epoxy kit from quickcrete

For legal reasons I'll just say this looks exactly like the sign that hung on the gate at LID

I got the RIP Hampton raceway sign at the reunion that BBB had.


Bench is a little messy, I been working on the brakes. The Big picture is DanO's Top Priority Mustang. Big props to Dan for introducing me to bracket racing

Thanks,

I can't wait to do the floor. I'll be spending more time down there then in the rest of the house.

That's real nice. It's something I should have done to my garage.
I'll just have to wait till the new one is built now.

Yeah, If I every move the first thing I'll do is the garage. It would have been much easier if I didn't already have 5 years of stuff in there.

5 years , Please, that's light weight stuff.
I have 15 years of pack ratted stuff, just since I moved in here, plus the many years of stuff I brought with me.
I'm gonna need to higher somebody to move my stuff this time.
