Well....she's gone.....  

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

To my parents house in NJ  


having some work done to the house....new roof on the main house & a revamp of the garage.

Im adding 4 feet to the side of it.  Cutting out the wall, new slab, adding a 36" door, new roof, vinyl siding all around and a zip drain in front of the garage door to finally control water getting under the door when it rains heavily....
Cant wait to actually have space to work IN the garage without having to suck in my gut to get around the car
Hopefully by next week Ill upload new pics

What have you got on YOUR garage floor in which it looks like squares of carpet for each tire to sit on when the car was in there?

My God what a "run-on" sentence that was. My language teacher would be so proud! 

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Yeah basically its spill matting.....the cheapie Home Depot single stage floor paint peels from the hot tires.   Prolly gonna go with a real epoxy kit when its done in the spring

"...its spill matting..."
What do tires spill? Clearly, Ive missed something. lol

"...go with a real epoxy kit..."
Like the Rust Oleum kit that I started the other thread about?

I think he is saying he uses spill matting to absorb heat from the tires so it does not cause his floor to peel   

[1969chargerrtse]

Not funny Chris, not funny at all.

I love that black vinyl top contrast to the paint and stripe.  


Also maybe if you lost the gut you wouldn't have to add 4 extra feet to the garage.

Yea I know, I've seen the You Tube video, that is one tight garage.  That'll be great when it's expanded.  

Your parents have a real nice garage!

Wow, cool parents too?  I tell my kids all the time it probably won't be until after I die that they realize how cool their dad, was. 

[Brock Samson]

wow! that's a great lookin mustang!  
Hey Chris,.. you know who has an even smaller garage?.. is that guy from the Netherlands who did the awesome nut and bolt resto on his red one.... It isn't on Codys' resto page and i forget his name though,..  
I'll see if i can find it... "NL Charger"?..  

ok - it was Jerone named "68Charger"
haven't seen him in some time round here,..
anyhoo,.. here's his work space...



and if any of you newbies are unfamilier with his '68 resto you owe it to yourself to check his awesome effort out...
pretty good for a '68.
 

 Anyhow Chris, it's great your Dad is a car guy, my dad never even learned to drive..

Ya his name is Jeroen and i think the webpage is www.charger.nl  ?

[Brock Samson]

oh, now ya' tell me...    thanks! 

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Yeah I remember he really has a tight squeeze.  My Dad always had a "car" to restore.  Mustangs are his love though.   He did the paint & bodywork himself.  The pics make the car look much better than in person....not bad for a rookie though

This floor matting looks sharp, but if its just tiles interlocked like puzzle pieces, then isent that a consern for spills leaking threw the joints and resting up under the tiles?

Damn that is funny S%!t right there. 

[69bronzeT5]
