Lol....I was only going to build a 2 car but now I'm having to look at a 4 car just for my stuff haha. Planning on 4 car and at least one lift that would make room for 5. Only way I can afford to go that big now will probably be going metal. Sheesh. My hobby keeps costing me more and more so I must love it or something........oh wait, I forgot, it's a disease!!

Congrats on accomplishing the start or your dream collection, and you're right, doesn't matter what others collections consists of, it's yours!

And Brad I hear you about the garage situation. I just went out and bought a rental property 6 blocks from my house only because it had a 4 car shop with it.

I've decided my best plan of attack on getting my collection completed is to do just the paint and body work on each one of my cars and then tackle reassembly one at a time once there all complete. I was next in line for consideration for a estimator job with a major insurance co. ( I could not have taken it anyhow, with all my projects unfinished). So that got me to thinking I need to get them all painted then if opportunity knocks I'll be ready

I'm not going anywhere for now.. Just getting myself in a better position so if it comes up again in the future again (a couple more years down the road) I'll be ready :-)
Realistically it'll probably take me two years to get my GSP's in paint only. And no matter what I won't be going any where until that's done
