Your shop looks a lot like mine with the exception that you’ve done a much better job of keeping the floor from filling up! I drag more crap home than I can fix lol

Should have seen it before I cleaned it out twice. Seems as though the walls tend to creep inward over time. I too have a disorder that causes me to drag a lot of stuff home.

I live in an apartment in the city but I've rented a shop in 10 minutes walking distance. It's really cheap and got everything except heating.

I do my work in the driveway under a tree.

Is there shade provided by said tree?

On a more meta note.. my shop is full of trash and treasure and unorganized. It's a combination of my messy habits and never having been clean when I took over and me not having any time for working in it.

Most work on my trucks is done outside in the grass. Only the little 2wd trucks will fit under the top of the sliding door. My 'shop' is just a glorified 40'x20' shed. It originally housed goats or pigs or something. It has concrete on one half and dirt on the other half, which I have layed sheets of plywood over.

That's a good looking '66 Impala. Is that an additional set of reverse lights in the taillight lenses?
Thanks, no these are the turn signals. Turn signal must be yellow in Europe. I made these lenses because I didn't want to add some turn signal.

I probably have the wrecked body of a 64-68 impala(or whatever years they are) or 3. I have the front grille, a 283, and a powerglide. everything else bit the rust. I tried taking the "Impala" cursive badge off, to no avail. And the "Chevrolet"

Almost done, just finishing up with my electrical probably this week, then organize. Building is Olympia, put 80% up myself, took four grueling months, just about killed me. Happy now!

That shop is nice, how high is your ceiling and door opening? I'm still in planning stage, but am definitely installing a 2 post lift
