Default Old barn... New workshop

While everyone else spent 2020 lounging around the house getting fat, and fighting boredom, we threw up a new steel building for the wife and kids to house their animals...

Which meant I got to gut her old barn, pressure-wash it (for 3 days) and close it in to use as a workshop.

Very excited to have all my tools, parts, and junk all in close proximity to each other. I still have to re-run the electrical for 220, so I can move my air compressor and welders out there, but the project is coming along nicely...

It's ugly, but it's cool. (kind of like Karlos.... )

Looking forward to getting this project behind me, and hopefully getting back out with the Cobra gang for some breakfast and lunch runs in 2021...

I should add one more pic of my new (well, not new, but new to me) daily driver...

Now maybe PhxMike won't feel so lonely...

Was that a shot I heard? I think it was a shot. Yea, it probably was a shot.

Hey- I'm gaining on you in the ugly department, But I'll never catch up in the cool department....

There's only one person I know who can pull off the bomber-goggles look while hammering down the highway...

Build a new barn for the wife and daughter, and get a new toy for yourself. Everyone wins

That should work out just fine for your needs. How about some A/C for summer?

Looks like a great shop. Lots of room to work. Those are really strange looking cobras, though.

Carlos, that was not only a shot, that was a hit!

Oh, Robby, Robby, a Pursche? I thought everybody, but Mike & Ron, got those out of their system's years ago Now what about a Cobra? Your due for another one buddy boy? Really like the New garage, you have room now. If things work out, I may have the JCF "Pik-Nik" 289 street Cobra for sale (Ask Karlos) he knows the story, plus it's his fault, always stirring up trouble Cheers Buddy, TommyRot.

Yeah, this tin shed isn't exactly going to be cool in summer... I've got my big, rollaround Evap cooler already moved out there, and standing by

Robert, after you did SO well selling your last Cobra, I'd think you'd just be flipping them as fast as you could.

But that's just it... Once it's a business, all the passion flies out the window...

Nope. I'd rather stay an amateur enthusiast, and purchase/enjoy the cars I want, and only sell them when one of life's greater priorities forces me to...
