  3. The more I put on the walls...the less they will look at my messy work bench, and my floor...at least that is what I am hoping. These are two of 4 walls worth of distractions...I'll snap a picture of the other two for later. g-willy IMG_20180206_103100024 (1).jpg IMG_20180206_103037715 (1).jpg

    Cool stuff guys! I like seeing the old auto part advertising shelves and racks in use. Also when there's stories associated with the parts and bits.

    I'm putting up some shelving today and will post some pics once the garage is back together.

    I have a few things hanging up. I'd have more if my walls were not metal. if you look at the giant 50 Chevy truck poster on the first picture you will see I also have a newspaper ad of the same art in the 4th photo by my office door.... the bottom one is my very first air brush T shirt I painted... the "RAT 49" was because at the time I had a 396 for my car. not rat rods.

    Event posters go into Goodwill frames. Take a tape measure in with me and pick 'em by size. Couple of dollars each. Throw the picture away. Semi gloss spray bomb white so they all match. The Chevy's original dash painted white also. Massive butchering covered by trippy prism decal. As fancy as I get.

  9. It's fun to dream while looking at Mark's emporium. That single magnesium TT caught my eye. Always wanted a spare.

  22. garagetrashed.jpg garage1_15_1.jpg It's possible I may have had something artsy on the walls before I got rid of a buncha stuff and moved the remainder into the room next to my garage.
