new home this spring
 

well I getting tired of tarping the lil speedster allways incase of rain, so decided to add and old school style lean to to an exisiting shed here. turned out good, I had to build the back wall backwards to get just enough room. now I have a dry spot, and built a lil bench in there to store all my A parts to. also started hanging up all the old signs and stuff on the walls. got a couple old garage lights one going up inside one on the outside. even used a window out of my grandfathers old barn. all in all I'm prity happy. coulda been bigger but however.its even guard dog approved !

Form follows function! Looks like you got all you could out of what you had to work with.
congratulations. If you were in Calif. it would have taken a year to get all the permits before you built it.

Re: new home this spring
 

Good job, looks like the one I built for the back of the barn, Thought I was all set but the tax man caught up to me when he came and measured the barn. The wood floor is the way to go, less moisture problems.

Re: new home this spring
 

What hoods did you use for the speedster tail? I used a 41 Hudson hood on a 29 speedster a long time ago. Think it's in California now.

Re: new home this spring
 

I'm jealous :)

Re: new home this spring
 

used two 47 IHC truck hoods. its not my idea as I saw another built like that on here and one like it online. they work very well and even they were a bit hard to find, but a LOT easyer to find than a 40 ford car hood, or, a Hudson hood. these two hoods came off wrecked grain trucks so I don't feel bad about using them
