Yes! i have a garage, but i am building a floor heated new garage attached to the house! hopefully ready next year!

update on the truck, it has been so long!

The painter didn't do his job properly so he is doing the entire front a second time. i have the wiring mostly done and working!
The best news is:
I found a restored 302 with AFR trick flow heads, hydraulic rollers good timing and ordered alle the rest i need!
it is going to be shiny and new! truck should be running next summer :woohoo: :woohoo:

Also ordered a Detroit locker, msd ignition, rear sway bar, fan controller and some other cool small thinks!
christmas is going to be sweet this year :D
