    Tools are in the storage bins and are of little to no use since my apartment complex started cracking down on working on cars. (gotta get out of this hellhole...)

    I swear, my cars are like a girlfriend.
    Sometimes its a rough ride, sometimes its smooth motorin'.
    Sometimes she doesnt like how i treat her and sometimes i dont like how she behaves.
    BUT at the end of the day, she loves it when I am inside her.

    Built this last year as the attached 2 car garage holds our daily drivers. This detached 2 car garage is for project cars (the 8) only.

    Man...you are brave to have 2 nice cars not garaged in the valley. How do you do it? So how are those Alpinas coming along?

    It's gated parking, although it's not all it's cracked up to be. Already had my Porsche broken into once. Been there for 15 years, so it's not too bad.

    Wolf is still refurbishing them. Says he is hostage to the machinist.

    Hey jcs1966, that tool box is some serious piece of business. I used to be a Snap-On dealer, so it brings back memories.

    Changed floorplans while the house was being built to make it a 3car. Didnt really need another bedroom

    you can see my 8er tucked in the back...

    Ive got my own alignment machine, 2 post lift and my welding stuffs that are going in the workshop im building on the side of the house

    This is the side of the house where the extra garage is being built. I just extended it another 25ft back and its 2cars wide.

    Hopefully everything gets done this summer.

    Thanks Wolf, lined em up and polished em up especially for Bimmerforums. But wait till you see my micrometers. Take your breath away.

    Also Wolf, I feel it is my duty to warn you before it is too late, don't adopt Bruinbro. I am confident he has a hidden agenda. He will probably categorically deny it, but, and very few people know this, his favorite color is yellow. Now if you are looking to adopt, look a little further north. Seriously.

    Thanks for the warning
    But no worries. I only adopt girls. Preferably 25 to 30 years old. :-)

    my temporary garage in Rome - leaving it tomorrow with a so called (by the owner) M8 replica.
    Can't do all the fixing here in Rome. Need some real tools for that

    I'm confused. Does the radiator duct get hot enough to need vents in the hood?
