My garage featured in "Classic Motorsports" magazine

The issue was about home shops, garages, etc...





There was a section about the absolutely sick garages that people with money have.





And a section about the garages that shmucks like most of us have (mine is the first feature in this section)





they used some old pics from the Grassroots Motorsports forum that I had posted...if anyone cares, here is what it looks like now. Still junky, but at least evrything is painted black now
