The Shop..............
Things are really coming together now. The shop is built and finished inside, has a 3 ton heat pump for a/c and heat and the new gravel drive has been completed. Some pictures:
The shop building, outside view:  Some pics of the driveway and parking area:    Heat Pump: compressor unit  air handler unit  Front door:  Messy workbenches:   The first major project will be to rebuild the 3.0 ltr in my SC into a 3.3 SS with twin plug Carrera heads and XDi ignition! Bring on the wrenches and beer!

As I struggle to make my 22x22 two car garage usable as a shop while still holding two cars......I officially hate you.
 You have what I aspire to someday. A little land and a nice shop, life is good.

Fuse panels
Forgot to mention, this is where I build the ATO fuse panels for 911s!

Beautiful job, Fred. Now if I could just get my place as cleaned up as yours - even though you call it messy.

Looking good, Fred... kudos for a job well done.
I see the AM-FM-SW radio... now to complete the man cave, you need a TV, beer fridge, and a couch. If the couch would crowd things too much, a futon that folds up... or maybe have the couch suspended with cables on a pulley system so you can crank it up out of the way when not in use.
