                  lol.

                  yeah, it certainly has been a treat just being able to use that shop and work. even when i was installing my sub while the car was parked in that shop i felt all wierd, like i really wanted to take a bunch of random, unpertaining pieces out of the car. so i did. lol. and i learned even more.

                  lets just say, it made the whole ordeal much MUCH easier.:D

                    When you get spoiled working on a lift with air tools and all the special tools the shop has, you dont ever want to work at home on the ground anymore.

                      That is 110% the truth.

                      we were working on the tranny with the car at ride height. it sucked. we got pissed. and i went and worked on my BMW BBS basketweave rim. to no avail.

                        Yes. Try working 8hrs/day on lift and with quality hardware then go to own garage and try to work with your own car on jackstands and those "grandfathers heritage" tools, it pretty much kills your inspiration.

                              Nice job Mike. I love that set up you have. Your shop is really a great thing to look at and makes me cry when I go in my garage. At least I clean my garage, so its not so bad. Keep us updated.

                                I will. though the garage isnt mine. it is mr deagle's. i just get blessed with being able to use it and service and fix my cars there. though my home has a garage, and i still enjoy being able to do things to my car while it is in there.

                                you know that alpineweiss busted e30? you know its perfect front end? guess where its going? thats right.
