Well you have been busy...

I wish you and Linda the very best of luck. Here's hoping that 2007 is YOUR year.
It couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

So - let's see...26'x50'....you could fit 225 or more machines in there...oh, but there is the shop..so let's say you have room for 100 more machines.
Way to go Creighton! Good luck in a safe move.

Good Job!!!

Everyone needs more space. I have a 2 car garage (cars outside),

3 mini storage rentals (stuff from 1979), and the 1800 ft bldg.

Hmmm...note to self...make appointment, see shrink about hoarding issues. ???

Let me know if you need the name of my building contractor. Come to think of it, he owes me! :D

Great looking shop... I can possibly see a few old Gas Pumps maybe sitting outside in front as well, with maybe some nice old Outdoor hanging Pop Signs!!! Alot of potential!! I Don't think Santa will have one of those in his bag for me this year... maybe next spring??? :hopefull:

Thanks All!!
Just happens to be a Wayne gas pump in front of the neighbors house. Lots of nice old cars waiting for restoration. Have my eye on a 57 Ranchero and saw a Packard wagon that would be fun. Linda likes to paint murals so deciding what to paint where will be fun.

Maybe one day when I grow up I can get a building like that!  Looks great.  I would have it so full of machines, pumps, and motorcycles I could not even walk in it.
