Getting a new home ready for our cars.

Before: The old 20' x 20' 1940's (or older?) garage (home of the El Camino) and canning shed (converted into a garage for the SS - left side). We added the 20' x 20' carport for our first generation Camaros about 5 years ago with the intention of using the materials from it in our new construction.



The front side....ready to get pushed back.




The back side.....




And it's down!

After we clean up the debris and get rid of the old concrete....Steve will dig for the utilities and we'll break ground for the foundation!

Hawkeye: My '68 Chevelle, Steve's '66 El Camino and his '68 Camaro Convertible are just around the corner from our house stored at a fellow car friend's house.
Steve's '68 Camaro Coupe is in Southern Oregon (6 hours away) at a friend's house. It's in good company with our friend's Corvettes.
The SS is in a storage unit about 4 miles away.
The mini-van, the '90 IROC and my '67 Camaro Convertible are stored in our other driveway at the house under temporary carports.


Nate: Thanks for helping me pull nails & staples. I've nearly worked my way through the pile of plywood. Steve's renting a backhoe next weekend to pile rubble into a couple of dumpsters that'll get delivered this week. Come on over if you want to. We'll be happy to put you to work!

Hey, no turning back now.......you're committed to build a bigger & better garage for sure! Looks like you've got a good project going.

You two missed a nice run last Saturday to Silver Falls. Wish you could have been there, but I guess getting a new home for your cars has to take priority.

Oh yeah, I've got an empty bay in my garage if you need a place to store one of your cars.

DOH! Too bad we didn't know that a week ago when we were searching for a place for the SS! We're taking it in the shorts for $159/mo storage at some units in Beaverton.

We definitely need to get together and go for a drive....the diversion will be nice!
