The last pic is of a horse overhang that i built with the leftover metal siding. Only thing i had to go buy was the wood inside. Granted it was my metal anyway, i just used it and not them.

Had all my trucks in there the other day cleaning the insides and i had soo much room still to move around. I am talking 6 trucks and that 6x12 enclosed trailer with all the other stuff also.
 
Darin that is awesome, can only imagine what room for one would be like, and now the thought of room for 6? Goodness, look forward to seeing it in person.
 
Are you looking to adopt? We are low maintenance, can contribute for food and shelter, walk dogs and horses or whatever you do with them, and we can both do basic household tasks. Hell I'd even sleep in that shop and be the guard dog!

That is amazing!

Overwhelming!!!! Yes you need a much bigger heater...what you thinking? A used oil heater or something?

Missing one thing though...A LIFT.

Jason, Not too sure on the heater, but am looking into one that will heat up the entire shop. Already talked to the builder about going thru the metal with an exhaust tube.
 
Heck yeah, that's awesome! I'm on a farm too... granfather plants two large garden plots and has like 10 old tractors and we've got a stash of outbuildings all over the yard. Dad's shop reminds me of your place but his is a little bigger, we've got a two-post lift, custom designed paint booth, and a few other goodies too. Everyone needs a manhaven me thinks :). Since I'm new here this is the first I've seen of your Cruisers too... awesome!!
 
Soon mine will have a 2 post lift and then will work on the paint booth one day, but i will have one of those in there also. About another week or 2 for the concrete to harden some more before i can drill into it for the lift.
 
Guess i get to do some work without the lift yet. Got a crack in my front exhaust pipe on the 60 and got a new one in today so as soon as i find my PB blaster or some other stuff in my mess i will get the old one off and the new one on. Then see if the old one is salvageable.

Boy i can not wait for the lift, as i will be on a creeper for this go around.
 
On the creeper i went tonight after work and got the exhaust off. Found the problem, the weld came apart at the connection. Broke a small part off though, so had to order another part. Go figure, but it was rusted pretty bad in its defence.
 
I thought the exhaust pipe itself was cracked. When i got it down i found the bad weld where it loks like it has pulled away with time, if that sounds right. I will try to get a pick tomorrow.

Now the other part i broke when i was trying to get everything off the old pipe is where the small pipe comes back up to toward the fender going to the egr system.

It is part number 25 that broke. It was rusted bad.

And i am also going to go buy some brass pipe for my air line. I bought some small stuff and practiced on it and it came out good. So i am going for it and going to start running some lines from the air tank.
