I'm gonna get Jill and y'all some better pics. These iphone pics suck. Plus in the house pics I didn't turn any of the lights on and they don't do it justice.

For the past few years that's been me. I just got tired of it. Figured since I was building a new house, why not make my life a little easier.

I have yet to move in and use the thing. Lots of projects for it though. Oil pan gasket on the Bronco. Rear main seal and full exhaust on the vert. Exhaust on the R.

The worst jack stand install I did was the lt headers in the 07. That one sucked.

The trans job almost killed my back. I've got shops but it would have been only a 2 day deal. The hard way was better because i could take my time. Love the garage btw.

Gary, want me to make your heart sink.

This is a friend of mine and paul's garage in Georgia. it was directly hit by the tornados last week. Paul had his teal svo there in the garage to keep it out of the weather, as his shop here was full of customer cars.

In the shop was according to Paul: 00 cobra r, 93 cobra we just painted, 86 comp prep svo & my teal 86 svo as well as his truck. Not to mention all the parts & memorabilia.

The R is repairable thankfully, as are most of them I believe.

It's repairable but not the same. That is very sad. And to be honest a hurricane might do the same to me someday. I really, really love all four of those cars. Pauls teal SVO is awesome. I know it will be better than awesome someday.

R parts a ridiculous. The wings out there are going for almost $2k. Of course most of the parts are actually V6 body parts for sure.

It would make a really nice track car once it's been repaired.

That car has 11k miles on it, so its not like Ben never drove it. Its made several trips over here to Barbers from his home. Pauls shop is going to do the repair work on all of them I believe, so I know it will be done right.

Two duffle bags, a cooler, car cover and such is a tight fit in the trunk. I was thinking the shelf created by the delete kit would be a nice place to put some stuff. maybe it is just a waste...[/QUOTE)

I have one in my 99. Its nice but the aftermarket ones aren't worth crap in terms of holding anything. The mmr ones which are what you get from AM are less then particleboard. I would honestly design one myself the next time. The one I have isn't even in the car bc. I didn't like the way it was mounted and it really didn't do anything other then look nice.

Dirk, I think they ended up either 7th or 8th out of 10. One of the teams never made it to the finish line. They were thrown for a loop when the car started. They were figuring on a no start. I don't know about the resume. I guess it doesn't matter right now since he joined the army
