Thank goodness you guys have a sense of humor.  For a moment there, Eileen and I were worried that we killed the thread.

 

We promise to behave ourselves from now on.  Well ... maybe not.  But we'll try.

no worries Otis and kudos on your reply it made me laugh

Josh,

The 75 Civic was my dads car. I was about 16 at the time. The white 66 Beetle was resprayed blue and sold- replaced by a yellow 75 Beetle.  The 88 Accord was replaced by a 92 Accord, which was traded in on a 2000 Accord Coupe. That car was sold to CarMax, replaced by my 2011 Pilot.  The Red 71 Beetle was sold in 2012- my 69 2002 replaced it.  Not pictured was my 81 Civic 4 door that I drove thru the end of college.  Different houses (and cities) in the pictures.

Poly-tarp carports work for me.  Plywood on the dirt = UPgrade.  This was 'summer mode', before most of those tools were rolled back into the shop.

I added eighteen inch extensions to the legs, for a less claustrophobic feel and gutters, because it rains a bit here.

 

The tRusty Subaru snow-car is back in service these days, since they are out salting the roads.  

This particular shed layout is not so good in the snOw though. :unsure:

I wish it looked like this more often!

That was a fun day.

( I should probably add that only the green car belongs to me.  The pretty '71s were just visiting : )

I have a single as i live inner city and wasn't prepared to raze 100 year old trees to make space. That being said I love my single. I rent a storage building close by where I store my cars and move 1 at a time into the workshop. I have since related the vertical compressor to a separate shed and piped air to the building for more space.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
