You know you should have taken the air out of that tank. That would have taken about 500# off of the weight. That air under pressure has a lot of weight to it. LOL

Very well done

With being a bigger shop and no Ford taking up space you have a bunch of room.

On a side note the daughter and son inlaw put their house on the market there in Firestone. The first bid came in 110K over what they paid 3 years ago. This may  ut down on the reasons for coming up there

Luckily everything listed has a place in my master plan. But yes it fills up quick, I’ll be cutting down some 16’ racks and changing them from 36” deep to around 12-18” to take advantage of height in the shop. I also acquired 13 old school automotive parts cabinets in a bulk purchase so I’ll be hanging those in various places.

Speaking of #LGB I have a new shop banner due in soon.

I figured everything had a place, just looks cluttered.

Can't wait till I begin to fill my shop. Found a couple spiral stair cases that my work temp and later be a good option on the far end.

Been looking at forklifts, big lathe after I'm dried in.

406’s, going to only use the portals and do a disc conversion on them w/ fabricated 9 center section. Most likely go under the bobbed 71 c60. Have a caddy 500 th400 eco-205/205 then. Plus some gigantic 50+ inch tires.

I’m sure it looks cluttered as I had just moved several items over from old shop and there’s several jobs in process in those pics. The fun of working thru a move as setting up shop.

Do I hear a sponsorship proposal?!?  :wink:

The thought had crossed my mind of building it to show, not good for much else.

yup that was a big thing too. they play it off like they're showing off the brakes and suspension but then you notice the brakes' manufacturers are not listed on the sponsors list...

This a common thing here on Oahu. Lift your rig as high as possible, leave out front driveshaft, and 14” rims with 28” tires… pointless but way too popular

I use concrete blocks under my shop press too, grabbed those at HD this morning for $1.67 a piece so for $15 I couldn’t make a steel rack to lift it that cheap.

BTW, shop is located in Weld county co. Which is largest oil producing county in state and full of ranchers. Hippies can pound sand……..

Parts washer upgrades, new remote filter setup and new pump / hoses plus diesel as the fluid = much better flow.





13 new to me old parts cabinets, paying Shelby to clean them out and re-box / inventory all the parts as they go back to guy I bought cabinets from as part of deal.

Like finding cabinets if they don't have that "new" price tag (way to often)

I have been using the TSC cleaning 1000 fluid, works darn good and well under $50 for 5 gal.
