My old house all i had was the garage door opener light, and a drop light for about 2 or 3 months, that was rough.

Sorry @84Ttop for the highjack

No worries, lighting is definitely key in being able to work on anything in a shop/garage. Hence the reason I didn't skimp on lighting with mine. I'm looking forward to getting the ceiling up next week (hopefully) so that I can mount the lights and wire them. The electric service is hopefully being installed on Friday which is the next major step in my shop project. There are certain things that I don't like to do myself, or more so can't do myself. I'll be trenching the 400' long ditch tomorrow so that everything is ready for my brother to actually accomplish something on Friday with the electric service

I wish the "Big Ass Fan" was in the budget... They are awesome! I've installed quite a few of those over the years but I had to settle for a 3,800 cfm shop exhaust fan (24x24) and two low speed 24,000 cfm ceiling fans (72")

Car is about ready finally. It runs and everything The only thing left to do is mount a new set of sneakers on the back and add 1 bar in the front for a bumper support. Come to find out end of last year the front end was collapsing on the top of the track... that is bad for aerodynamics lol.
Oh, the garage is nearly done. Not that I've kept that up to date or anything either. Long story short, the dyno is up and running and the 2015 makes an addtional 30rwhp now lol. The 84 is getting strapped down next weekend to verify the electronics and we can rock and roll.

I would go...if I wasn't 10 hours away.

Maybe one of these years I'll head up for the American Muscle show and then take a long detour on the way back to see that shop of yours.
