    The driveway which sucks because it is on an incline. I have not had the nerve to put it on jackstands on the flat part. Luckily it sits high enough that I can get to everything I need.

    My Kraut rocket is a different story.

        Nice looks like you have a main work area then a section as a clean room for building engines

                I work inside the truck bay at the fire department where I am employed. I have all the tools I need, plenty of light and a comfortable 70 degrees year round. I'm a bit spoiled. Installed a complete suspension lift at work. I wish I had pictures.

                  This is where the work gets done. Either the two car garage or in the dirt in front.

                      I have been around a while and now have a 24x24x10hi garage with air in the walls on both sides, pull down lights, water hose, and air hose, heat and air conditioning, several Craftsman cabinets, and overhead crane on an I-beam spanning the garage where the engine sits when pull in, several work benches along the walls, a lot of tools stashed everywhere, and most importantly a beer 'fridge. I all too well remember working outside in heat, cold, rain, and snow. No more of that for this old guy. The biggest problem is that the Avanti has to sit outside when the Jeep in being worked on-was out for 5 1/2 months this spring thru summer-but what the h***, it's just a car!

                          I hope to pour a pad to work on this summer, but for now as I live in the desert its the sand. Anyone want to loan me some dirt.

                              I have a two car garage and a gravel drive way. So the J20 gets the gravel work and the GW is in the Garage now in pieces! The wife's VW Jetta TDI takes the other garage spot
