I know some of you guys like progress threads so I will do my own little progress on my big toy box. On some of the other forums I am on they have requested I keep them up to date so I figured why not let the SVTP Guys in on the project.

Here are a bunch of before pics of the garage, The siding is being delivered today and they are starting on the roof on Wednesday or Thursday. They hope to have it done by the end of next week. I will take pictures nightly for those who want to follow this. The garage is a 32x60 garage with a loft that is 18x14 in the back corner (you can see the window). I have been working on cleaning the inside out all spring to get it organized and am trying to get a project on the inside mobile (77 GMC K25 Camper Special) and once its all done I hope to have everything in order except taking some metal to the scrap yard.

Ha! thats for our kids, the Husky that manages her way into the pic and the terrier that uses it just for drinking.

A little update on the garage. They had to replace a bit of wood on the roof and on the side because of rot. It is finally coming together and I am hoping it is done by the end of the week. enjoy

Should be nice when it's finished. Man, that is one huge garage. I assume the loft will serve as some sort of office?

Actually it is currently extra parts storage. The cobra gets parked underneath and I have shelving units and my tools under it too so the only thing on the working floor is a workbench. Eventually I'm going to wall off the loft so its quieter when the air compressor kicks on and out a little garage door so the cobra doesn't get dusty when working on something else... But that's not until after the lift.

Ah, okay. I thought maybe you were building a garage for working on cars with an office above. Still a nice plan you have. Should be nice, and very useful.

This is my "little" workshop/toybox. It keeps me out of trouble and busy most of the time. After I clean it out this weekend I will get some inside shots as well. Hope you all are enjoying the progress.

Yes as money permits, I am going to finish and insulate the interior and then add some sort of heat.

The problem with your logic is the speed limit is the law, the pics and vids thread is a suggestion. I've seen plenty of pics in roadside and nobody complained. Unless you're actually the forum police and I'm under arrest for breaking the forum law? I don't care that you moved it or the mods moved it, just please don't clutter my progress thread like you have with many others.
