DRIVEN Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 As I've mentioned before, my brother is BACKWOODS DAVE. He's a bodyman by trade. I'm a has-been mechanic. We both inherited the affliction from our dad. A few years ago I had the opportunity to purchase my childhood home from my parents. This thread is basically a shop tour. There have been many hours spent by my dad, my brother and me on countless projects in the compound. I will post another thread in the non-datsun section to show a few projects. But first, here's The Compound... Paint shop first parking for 3 cars plus a paint booth compressor and beer fridge Inside the booth. Filters front and rear. Quote Link to comment
DRIVEN Posted December 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Now the other shop... Just put up some additional storage 2 weeks ago Hoist, press, band saws, steel, etc. My pickup and parts in the corner (and ceiling) And the unfinished "MAN CAVE" up stairs Quote Link to comment
