    I have something new going on to post

    Hi all, only have 2 new things going on, 1st- been working on my garage, now it going to be 28x 36, that's because we are going to leave 1 garage bay under the house, the framing is done & the roof trusses are up, but still have a long way to go. 2nd - I had a group of guys from Car & Driver out here today to film the old 36' Packard for a TV show segment, it was a ball & I had a lot of fun doing it, what a nice group of people. I don't know right now when it will be on, other then the 1st part of next year, but they're going to send me a tape of it when they finish segment, what more can I ask for.

    That's great, Jim. I know you'll like the garage space and we'll be looking for Car & Driver to see your Packard.

    Jim: I read your post in the CCCA section. I just have on thing to say YOU LUCKY FELLOW. You now have a Packard that is a movie star. You will find that after everything is done with your garage that you wished that you would have built it bigger.

    Ro & Packard53, Thanks, they told me some time in April of May, but they'll call when it's going to be on, also they're going to send me a tape when they have it finish [img]images/icons/cool.gif" border="0[/img] . On the garage, I know, I wanted a 30x48, but the 28x36 will have an overhang in the front 20x36 to be used as a car port, the bay under the house will hold 1 or maybe 2 cars, and behind the house, just inside the woods I have a 18x24 pole barn (garage) and a 2 car port next to that, that's 10, maybe 11 cars under roof, also building this garage by myself, sometimes I think I should have made it smaller (NOT)

    Jim: You have alot moreroom for car storage than I do. The garage that I have for the Chevelle and Packard is 24X24. I have the garage divided off down the middle. The one bay is insulated, this bay has heat and ac both. Some day I amgoing to get TV cable installed, soon I hope. Thats one part of the property the wife has no say over. I know how you feel I built most of my garage mysel also.

    Packard53, When I'm all finish the garage, it will have it's own 200 amp electric service for heat & air, and have a half bath, this way I'll have a place to live when the wife kicks me out of the house. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif" border="0[/img]

    Congradulations on making your PAckard a star. I have heard that once females get star status they start demanding more, things like heated garages...

    .......just give them a second look and they start demanding at least one of the 3-C's.

    Has that 36 asked for a breast development via a pair of Dagmars from a 56 yet? Star status does that. (try visualizing a 36 with 56 bumpers on it...I don't think so ;-)
