My neighbor has a grease pit in his garage, I can use it when needed. But pits don't work well with VW's, because the engine comes out the bottom. My idea for right now, is to get the building up, and get my 4 VW's inside. The building will be 30 x 45. this will give me room to park the cars, and still have room to work. The work shop area would be partitioned off from the parking so it could be heated separately in the winter. The garage idea came to a head last week, when the wife pulled her Jeep into the current garage, and hit the floor jack, and cut a sidewall on a tire. Bad news to blow a tire in the garage. :=( -- Russ Wolfe '66 FB MT (It drove) '71 FB AT '65 Bug (not running) russw@classicvw.org http://www.classicvw.org ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
