JohnieG and I made a trip to JR's Garage on Sunday (main reason I sold Jr a S&S 1400) would like to share some pictures  Spent a few hours there with Jr he is a great man to talk to  a lot of history with this man.

Cool garage! Where does he have room to work in it?
Did someone snap a picture of JG without his knowledge? You know he doesn't like his picture taken!

To post big/many photos, you need to use an online photo sharing site, like Webshots or Photobucket...then after you post the photos to that site, it will give you a code snippet that allows you to post (or embed) the photos in a forum.

Thanks. I didn't want to be the first to ask.

There is a Coke clock that looks pretty nice by the Public Telephone flange. That garage is packed!

 Nope .

He does not want "to be known" , It was fine to show off the stuff like this, but he does not want people just stopping by or calling him, ( John & I got invited)

I like the little service lift stand that the pedal car is on. Kind of a neat way to display it

Thanks Pat, we will respect his privacy.  However, if anyone wants to visit my basement malt shop when they are in the Western NY area, I would love to show it off.  Admission is free and so are the malted milk shakes.
