Default Show Us Your Man Cave

Take this opportunity to post a picture of your man cave and tell us a little about it. Here is my cave. I owe it to my wife who helped me to create it. We now have a pool table added too. I just love hanging around in it smoking some cubans and having a beer.





Wow, some great pictures have been added to this thread. Keep them going we all love seeing them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea that photo is on your hard drive. You have to host it online like at photobucket so we can see it.

In a nutshell.

Upload photo(s) to Photobucket

Move cursor over picture on Photobucket

You will get 4 lines

Copy (Ctrl C) bottom one - it starts with [IMG

Paste (Ctrl V) it to your post.

FINITO

Funny you should ask I just started clearing out so I could add one to my shop. I am adding a 12X28 ft man cave. It will have one of my C-3`s inside along with tv, fridge and big screen tv. [IMG][/IMG]

Also a very comprehensive with pictures version of the instructions at the very top (sticky) of the C3 parts for sale section. bkvette3 summed it all up in a few lines though.

Default Dan Tanner

I always thought Dan Tanner (Robert Ulrich) had the greatest setup where he drove his car right into his living room. Was the show's name Vega$ or Spenser for Hire?

It was Vega$. Spenser was later. It was Robert Urich and he played Dan Tanna.

If I remember right, Tanna actually had a mid year Corvette that was blown up in the show's pilot, and he bought the T Bird off a used car lot to replace it.

That's one of those brain twisters isn't it?

Let me tell you a little secret. If you include your wife on this project she will feel like she is a part of your happiness and that this is not just something of yours alone.
