“But today I’m going to give you eagle-eyed, hi-tech readers a treat, and enough hard-to-see, half-hidden details to keep you busy for at least a week. I’ve already mentioned a couple of times that I’m quite happy–as most hot rodders should be–that the garage is obviously considered part of the home, and what better place to be sequestered…if you have to be sequestered? Mine has always been a working garage. But it was old to start with (1937), and we’ve been here at least 35 years. Right off I added on to the original 2-car garage, which ended at that large beam with the valve covers and hats on it, extending it 20 feet back, maybe 30 ft. to the right, and 18 ft. high. It holds 5 cars, plus a lot of other stuff, as you can (and will) see. I’m not a collector. In fact I throw too much away. But I do accumulate things, and save things that have special meaning to me (one way or another).”
