New home for the Camaro soon
Many of you know my parents have a nice building on there property and my dad and I have been working on it for about 5 years now. the main shop is just about done now just needs paint. We also decided to close in the lean to or overhang on the backside of the building since we had a enough extra sheets to do it so why not.
My camaro is at my place now at a townhome community my dad said i can park the camaro in the added part of the building if I want too. So I have a choice to make take the SS to my parents were it will be stored inside and out of the weather. Or keep it where I live at in a parking lot basically, my parents live about 10 miles away so not to bad but it does get to be a pain to drive out there to get the car and then back to get my daily driver
Anyways here is some pictures of the shop and the unfinished area is where the SS may go also some interior shots and random ones of the shop

I would leave it at your parents house inside for sure. It is not like you don't have another car to drive. I have never seen you drive the Camaro either. Always the Honda.
Leave it there and get it on the weekend. Plus it looks like a very nice shop, satilite TV while working on the car. That is the best stuff I have ever seen in a while.

Nice garage. Just watch out for field mice.I had 2 SS's last year and put 1 in the back yard and a field mouse built a nest on the intake and started eating my fuel injector wires.

This weekend we just cleaned and got organized mostly we built a shelf in the back to hold things and then started moving things out of the main shop into the addition. My dad is going to try and finish the ceiling during the week and then the scaffolding can finally come out. Next Saturday we are planning on painting the interior and then the week after hopefully another coat on the floor.

This weekend i was sick bad on saturday my dad did get the white paint on and today we painted the navy blue stripe and my dad will paint the lower half cowboys gray. were trying to figure out where to put a Dallas Cowboys star also i was thinking the doors although the back wall would be nice.
next week we hope to clean the floor and decide wether to prep it for another coat or leave it how it is.
Also finshed the herculiner on my bike rack for the truck came out pretty good. I also cleared my new SLP SS Grill planning on wetsanding it next weekend and then putting it on the SS.

This weekend we had a side job to do but we did get the shop completely emptied and the floor cleaned up and also masked off. we also got the second garage door installed we were hoping to get the floor re-coated but my uncle couldn't make it out with the sprayer. I got some photos of the storage are packed full and some shots with my Honda and my dads Sierra while i was changing the oil.
