Very cool! You've got some great "stuff" back there. Wish I lived close, I'd volunteer to be free shop helper, just to play/learn your talents.

Thanks for the inside peek. 8) Gives me/us a better feel for your space/setups.

Thanks Jean & WC.
The wall graphics are from probably 15 or so years ago. I did a booth for Marchelloni's Pizza that we set up at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago. When they gave up the spot we went back & tore it all down. They asked if I wanted the mural because they had no place to store it and it was going to get pitched. So, since I painted it on 4'x8' marlite panels I just paneled the wall with them.

BTW: I got some V-Clamps in the mail today for the intercooler plumbing & exhaust. I bought them on the internet & didn't even pay attention to where they were coming from. Turns out there were shipped from Spenser, IA. That happens to be the same town I met Cheryl in. And, it's where I bought the panel truck, from the owner of the speed shop there. Can't remember the name of the guy or the speed shop though. :oops:

Oh, & another BTW: Cheryl & I have been married for 34 years as of last Saturday. :idea:

Cancel that. Clamps that are supposed to fit a 4" tube....DON'T. :oops:

Back to the drawing board......or Google as the case may be. :wink:
