I bought a house and shop on 4022 N Argonne and im not sure when the official move in date will be. Ive been working on putting in a hoist and had an overhead storage loft built to store the heaps of car junk that goes along with being a car guy Lol. Ill keep everyone posted when i make the move but for now in still in the old Hot Rod shop on Barker Rd. Thanks!

The place is still on the market but at some point i needed to think ahead and get somewhere i can stay permanently. Plus as a selling point, my junk needed to get out of the shop for a full cleanup and repaint.
I already have the hoist up and running in the new place and all i gotta say is, roto-hammering is a BITCH! LOL. My hands are still vibrating from drilling to china for the anchor bolts. Last night Steve Berg and i loaded some heavy shelving on top of the loft using his forklift. The thing weighs 6800 lbs and about squashed the car tralier getting it to the shop.
On the way back we stopped at Jack In The Box and i told him i was SURE i could fit the trailer thru the drivethru. He laughed and said NO WAY. Well i tried it and dammit if i wasnt within 3 inches of plotting the tire path where it would have made it. Sooooo, we ended up getting stuck, driving the whole thing over the short curb, catching the U-bolt spring plate and breaking out a section of the curbing. LOL I was laughing my butt off.

Nope it was my dads trailer. The one i got from you works fine for regular stuff but a 6800 lb forklift would have killed it since there arent enough cross braces to handle the load. Them forklifts are HEAVY! It was all my 1/2 ton 4WD had in it to tow it. LOL
