Remember I run a pair auto shop, time/project managment is my forte. In fact, If I can organize a 2.5m a year pair of auto shops, I can complete this project in the alloted time. Again, thanks for the support.'88 528e /// '88 M5 /// '89 951 /// '98 E430 /// '02 M5

Yes, I pulled it myself, aside from my amazing assistant (future wife) handing me tools under the car, and pumping the cherry picker as I adjusted the load leveler.

Well, working 12 hr days at a shop with the volume I have, it is impossable for me to work on my car at work. this is my home garage "shop". I have 4 8' flouro. lights and romex that I haven't found time to install. All the work I'm doing is at home after a 12 hr workday. Sorry, my shop does not have enough light for you, When you come over to do your engine swap with my tools in my space, I'll be sure to clean up for you.
My "fancy shop" is a constant flow of brake jobs, struts, and, engine/trans replacments. There is nowhere in my 28 bays I can leave my car tying up a rack for months on end. the only real free space that was secure for me to leave my tools, car was my own garage. I have 15 techs to control and keep busy all day at work, you thing I could complete a project like this there in my non existant free time?Last edited by Farbin Kaiber; 09-27-2007, 09:42 AM.
