Garage is Done

[commando1]

How do you know??

I wanted 2 doors instead of one and the spacing would have made it look funny if i went larger so i went with the 8' wide. I have 4' on each outer side and 4' between the doors.

I was humorously referring to the times my wheel well moldings had to be replaced because of "errors in judgement" navigating my NYB's through the 8' wide door. I wish I could have spec'd 9' but I just didn't have the room.

I was wondering when the unveiling was going to be. Looking great Mark!

Finally I can take my old car(s) out without having to squeeze into the doors or move something out of the way.

Now I need them to make a new version of a 70 Polara rag so I don't have to deal with these stupid carburetors.

I have a friend that has also a '67 Ambassador Coupe. His is a dark Plum color, white vinyl roof and medium Plum colored cloth interior. It is super clean and well optioned. I sent him this blog in hopes for him to join our club. Maybe also put a picture of his car and its story.

Not sure. As of right now I am working and will have limited time to get over there. Oh, and if anyone talks to @polara71 tell him Hoss's moved!

Unless they somehow made it more convenient for him, he isn't going to like that.

To where? Has their food improved? We stopped going there a few years ago.

They moved down to Walnut Bottom Road on the south side of town, off Exit 45.

Looks like it is now where the Bonanza used to be years ago. Down the street from the Campground that I stay at. Hope the food has improved.

It is exactly where Bonanza was. We have not been in the new place but I imagine the food is the same.
