Looks great! White floors will be nice. I thought about doing those too...interested to see how they turn out. Will definitely be brighter!

Wow Jim! Really cool. That is a great size. I'm sure it won't take long to fill it up. So what is the city you moved to? I can't keep up with all the moves you make!

Corsicana TX area. Hopefully last one....I've done enough over the years.

Not as much room as you have....but I don't have as many toys! I would like an engine dyno someday though....it's on my list.

A really nice shop, a nice C2, love the over hangs. The lighter epoxy floors and natural lighting also great. Should be a lot of fun to go to each day. I know I cant stay out of mine and am just getting around to decorating it a little. I also had the side lean too but covered it later on for a paint booth and to park my dually truck.

RVZIO...NICE! I like the wood on the lower side wall. Cool touch!

I've built several over the years....and when they are done....it's great to just hang out in them. Don't necessarily have to be doing much...but it feels like "home"!

Got my flags hung up today and installed some "barn tin" in the beverage area. (It's a TX thing!). Moving ahead....

Hey, you can play spoons and use the tin as a washboard for your "Jug band".....

(Obviously, I'm jealous of your new 'digs'.)
