Ha Ha...mine's even MORE old-school...it's a DIRT driveway!! (meaning that...in Michigan...most of the time it's actually a MUD driveway!) The garage floor is cement, but covered with enough dirt to carry the illusion...and to keep tools and parts from making too much noise when you drop them! (And, as a bonus, the puff of dirt and dust coming up from the floor helps you find where said tool or part landed!) Only real problem is the BUGS!! Ha Ha...I oughtta call AIR-COOLED over...he's the resident exterminator for these damned things, right?!
heres some shots at my shack. some are mine some are not the 59 quad cab, 62 vert, and the green 55 are my buddies rides.

Why does it have to be a cuffed jeans thing??? Why can't it be a hippy wearin sandles steppin on the back of his bell bottoms thing??? Anytime someone gets mad on here, its go comb your hair or check your cuffs. TommyV, you always have the best pics. Who won the Nor-Cal vs. the So-Cal thread???
