Yes things have been slow here. Maybe this topic has been done before? Old cars and soda collecting goes hand in hand don't you think? Lets see some of the collector or interesting vehicles you guys might have.

1966 Mustang Fastback. All original (numbers). 289 engine. Planning on installing a 4 speed this summer (no longer original). Had for about 2 years, bought in restored condition. Fun to drive, people love it.

Anybody else?

Nice stang.
I have a few classic cars. I'll post some photo's later. I currently have a 71 GMC "Jimmy" blazer factory two wheel drive (only 376 made) It is a frame off custom that is about 90% completed, although I mave be tearing it back down to change a few things. Like adding 4 link suspension , aig bags and major body modifications. I also have a 64 El Camino tall original that I use for my work car and a 62 Ford Falcon coupe that I will be restoring for my daughter. I also have a few vintage dirt bikes.

Can't wait for the snow to melt so I can take out my '59 Vette.  Pretty much stock original... purchased 4 years ago out of Texas. Standard 283 V8, 4 speed. Of course it's Coca-Cola Red and White. It's a great car and lots of fun with both a hard top and softop. Not alot of room for hauling machines and gas pumps however!? '<img'>

Not a collector car, but it is in great shape for 10 years old. These were taken in '04.

Finishing up on my new garage so I can work on my 68 RS/SS Camaro. It is a four speed car with a 12 bolt. I fabricated my own sheet metal intake and stainless mufflers. I don't think the intake plenum is high enough, so I'm going to rework it before using it. You guys have posted some really nice looking cars. Hope mine will be as nice some day.

Wow! All of your cars look awesome guys! If I had the room I'd love to restore a classic car.

Jerry-
Nice lookin' garage, how big did you go? If you don't mind me asking, what's the ball park price for something like that? I have been seriously thinking about building an eave entry 2 car garage with a room-in attic and what you have pictured here is very similar to what I was thinking about doing.

Hey Brian,
It's 32x40 with a 17x40 bonus room. Doing some of my own work and subcontracting out the rest, I expect when done, around 35k or so. How do some of you guys have your garages laid out, tool boxes, shelving, work benches, etc. How about some of you show pics of the inside of your garages, to help me figure out what to do in mine. Thanks

Jerry,
Recently I put up this commercial shelving to help get alot of the stuff out of the way. I had it powder coated and I left a couple of the bays open for work bench area. And I put a light in them to light up the work area a little more. It helped me pack a lot of tools and things into a relatively small area.

Roger, You have a well organized great looking garage, and some good looking projects going on there also. I like the lift the car is on, that would be nice addition in any garage. Thanks

Hey

I was just scanning & saw this entry.

I hope that I will soon have a car to show.

My dream car  69/70  Mustang Mach 1.

Fall back car would be a 71/72/73  Mustang  Mach 1 or convertable.

One of my must do things before I die is to go the Barrett-Jackson car auction in Arizona. I want o spend a week enjoying the action.  When the B-J was on TV in January  did not miss a night watching. I even had my wife watching with me.

Now the my son ( Coke Machine Rescue Driver) is in college I think I am getting closer to getting my dream car.
