At any point in time I've usually got one vehicle torn apart in the garage. Right now the damage I can do is limited by my small working space. With a shop that size I'd be broke and so would my vehicles.

The ZJ finally runs, at least. Picked it up from the shop yesterday, then of course when I went to leave work it wouldn't start. Got a ride home to change clothes, then went back and laid in the ice and snow for 30 minutes trying to figure out where this mystery wire by the starter was supposed to go. Apparently nowhere. A couple hours later I realized that it might be the park safety switch, went back and pushed on the shifter and it started right up.

Not sure yet, there are a few old school cool looking hub caps that have the V8 logo in the center of them, like baby moons w/ an emblem if ya can envision that. Mainly some old baler parts and just junk. The barn that is on the property was built at the turn of the century and is a peg barn...pretty rare and very well constructed. It may have some hidden treasures in it.

When my g/f & I bought our house a year ago, the previous owner (actually, her deceased husband,) had a beautifully restored 1919 Ford in the detached garage. Sitting on 4 jackstands, immaculate paint and upholstery, even had a tag hanging from the radiator cap with what had been done for storage.

Unfortunately, I did make it a condition of sale that it had to be removed. Much as I appreciated it (would have made a great parade vehicle,) I absolutely did not need another project vehicle. I really should have taken some pictures of it. And if it ended up going to the junkyard, I really do not want to know it.

Really makes me think you're not a car guy.

Would have made a great parade vehicle?

How about "would have made a great vehicle on super saturday at barrett-jackson."
