    Ok... technically 5 and a half, cause we can only see half of the ragtop..

    I was walking around the shop late tonight taking progress pics for customers, and it hit me that we had all the cars arranged in the front of the shop, except for the 72 STG 1 ragtop that is now in final assembly, TSP's "Project limited" Big block Regal, and Beth and Dana's Sportwagon.

    And ya, so I cheated.. turned one of them on it's side.. :laugh:

    Pictured are..

    Don Schmea's 71 GS 350, Ken Krisher's 72 GS 455 , Henry White's 70 STG1, Brent Holm's 71 GS 455, TSP's Race car shell/frame (70 STG 1) and Cole Smith's 70 GS 455 ragtop.

    Only actually 5 and half like I said, but I think I should get extra credit :rolleyes: for Project Limited's Level 2A motor in the foreground, which is on the run stand for final adjustments before we drop it between the frame rails..

    All but 2 of these cars (not including the shop race car, which is home) will be back home with their owners within the next two months.. which explains why I have not been on the board much lately..

    Busy, Busy Busy..

    Thought you guys might be interested in a pic, was going to update the TSP site, but went over there, and it looks like it took a navigation hit in the server changeover.. yikes..

    Jim,
    I guess the wagon was just to big for the picture. LOL :grin: kidding.
    I can't wait to see your shop in person, although I may not ever want to leave.
    Here's an idea, stick a cot & a microwave in the corner & you would have TSP's Bed & Breakfast.

    Have a good day.
    Beth

    Hey could you move that X pipe closer to the wagon:Brow: :Brow:

    Beth,
    You must mean another cot? Because I can only figure that Jim either lives close, or he has a nice comfy couch with all of those long hours he puts in.
    I didn't want to leave either. At least without a nice clock, some aluminum heads, x-pipe...................:laugh:

    Wow, nice interior pic. Too bad JW didn't take the outside pics. I have heard there are massive amounts of black stripes outside the shop. Seems JW has been installing a lot of posi units and testing them outside the shop. Uh huh! Sure Sure!:Brow:

    I bet his office has a set of bunk beds for him and Mike Bucy.

    No bunk beds! Don't you remember the size of the Electra 225 front seats? He has a couple of them bolted to the floor for himself and Mike. JW only needs about an hour or two of sleep each night. He can't wait to get to work and start wrenching on the Buicks!:grin:

    Don't let him fool you on how busy he is!

    :laugh:

    He loves his job. Rumor has it he says "going to work is like winning the lottery!"

    :eek2:

    Wow Jim. Space fills up quickly doesn't it?
    Remember not too long ago seeing pictures of this great big empty space. It looks like you are filling every nook and cranny.
