    “….I'd rather see less car space & a dedicated area for fabrication- welding-polishing-grinding-etc, away from cars……”

    I hear you Steve. While all the bays are going to be pretty much general purpose mechanical, I’m setting it up so the welders, drill press, hydraulic press, grinder etc are pretty much in one area (although it will be wired to the welders can be moved to the lifts to do under car welding). The bay next to it will be left empty when I’m actually doing things like boxing the frame on the 37.

    On the other side the bench on the east wall will be set up with my AC/carb and electrical stuff. That’s not saying that’s the only place it will be done at or that’s the sole purpose of the slot, just where it will be most convenient to do it.

    Again I really appreciate the input as it helps me firm some of this stuff up and think about stuff I might overlook.

    I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....
