Garage Project Begins Today
My brother in law will be here in about an hour, to begin the "raise the roof" project, prior to buying a lift. Here's a before picture of the area, all cleaned out except for the gas pump and lube-ster. Hope all goes well. Moving the 69 to my mother in law's house this AM, THEN, my wife and I have tickets to the Orioles opening day game. Don't know how many days this project will take. Chuck

Chuck, I dunno, I think I would take EVERYTHING out of there except for the compressor, and I would cover it real well and tape it closed around the bottom. If you have ever worked with wallboard, you know that it is nearly impossible to keep that fine white dust off everything during demolition. You'll have a lot of cleaning and detailing later if you don't. :D
Nice, clean professional looking garage. I hope mine will look that good someday.

Hey guy.... you never told me my garage looked nice! :cry
How about if I just say, well,uh...that your garage is, uh...interesting. Yeah, that's it,...interesting...Hey, look there at that one (inclining head more horizontally)...It looks like an huge, impish smiley face, or...maybe your once-upon-a-time pre-schoolers were practicing in the garage. And, aw yeah, cool, look at that one there (inclining head in the other direction), it looks like a fat woman bending over.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
You'll never see mine now :D :D, but trust me, I know a ratty garage when I see one. And, yours, well uh...it's not ratty, it's just ...interesting . :jester :lol: :lol:

Re: Garage Project Begins Today (Patrick Tighe)
Well, the destructo has begun. Got home from the Orioles home opener, to find a huge hole where the ceiling used to be. :)
Have to rub it in...the O's beat the hated "Yanquee's" and their 40+ year old "ace", "Rocket Roger" Clemens. Final score was 10-3. He he he. Loved it.
Anyhow, I'm intimately familiar with wallboard dust, and would love to move all the cars, BUT, I can't find anywhere to put them. All my buds have their garages full. Moved one car to my mother in law's house. Will just have to live with the clean up mess after the "deed" is done. Chuck
