My biggest issue is saving parts and tools I removed or don't use anymore, it's a storage space issue.
I have about the smallest 2 car garage allowed by code, one side houses my Mustang and the other switches from storage/project space to my wife's car when the weather gets cold.
Don't think I could fit another shelf or cabinet in the space..lol.
Oh yeah and I have a 12'x8' shed full of lawn equipment ,pool equipment and car parts, let's not even talk about the basement.

Thats 'stuff', not junk
If your buy'n it it's junk. If your selling it it's stuff
If your taking 'stuff' you don't need your 'crazy'

Easy there, this ain't a dating site.

This week I bought an engine that I didn’t need (already have one). And I hauled in home in a ford ranger that I also bought and didn’t need (I already have a ranger). I put the engine next to my other engine and parked the ranger next to my other ranger.
I at least plan to sell one of the rangers at some point, but my wife has trouble comprehending my schemes. That may be because they’re the incoherent ramblings of a person with a mental illness. We’ll never know

No, I always have a need when I buy them. However, some projects take longer than others, and plans change. Maybe why I have 3 Fox parts cars, 2 tbird turbo coupe parts cars, and 5 spare 302 engines, and four spare 2.3 four cylinders..... and one gen 6 454 for the chevelle.

My wife thinks I have issues....



I've bought these recently. Few more years to go.


Then I decided I needed wall art for the garage, so this collection is growing


Then I saw a pair of model T wheels on CL and decided i needed wall art.


Stil got another wheel for the basement.

Oh yeah then there's the 2015 coyote intake manifold I bought for wall art too

Your wall art does not have to be life size, smaller art = more art
Oh, and furniture, less furniture = more wall space = more wall art.
