9years 11 months ago I purchased my property. I built my house on it but also included was a 40 x 48 garage. I bought it from my folks. Part of the deal was dad had use of the garage for ten years then at that point remove the stuff and remove the two 53 foot box trailers parked behind it.

Well in about four weeks is the 10 year mark. I am very excited BUT it is still full of his stuff. My folks are in the middle of building a new house so it’s not looking like he will hold up on his end of the bargain.

I told him I would take his ’36 as rent.. He didn’t like that idea..

I can’t be mad at my father, never could, but it is a little frustrating. He has had ten years to plan for this.

Not sure how this will turn out but wish me luck..

This is the back corner. I don't have a better photo of the garage.

Cool looking garage! That would make a nice shop it looks.

Can't help with the domestic dispute though but know it's definitely frustrating.

No dispute and I don't think there will be.. Just a waiting game.. Maybe he will surprise the heck out of me.

I see what appears to be a 58 Dodge in there.

I think your offer is fair, and I will back you up.

The '36 is fair rent for 10 years.

Just don't let Greg anywhere even in the next county close to it.

Good eye Michelle, but it is a '59. My father thinks it should be my next project. Got to admit it would be fun.

Jason!, there`s your answer!, say you`ll do the Dodge if he`ll get the rest of his junk out of there!, so you have some elbow room!

Well some good news. Last summer dad built himself a new garage. One end is for parking buses and equipment and the other end is for a shop and storage. This week the shop/storage area is getting a concrete floor so he can move his stuff out of my building..

So it is possible I'll get to use my garage this fall. If nothing else, over the winter, I'll be able to park a few of my vehicles in it.

Out back of the garage is two van body trailers that are suppose to be moved (by dad). We found someone who wants them so today we moved the old trucks out of the way and removed everything out of them. I am pooped, LOL. We are just waiting for the guy with the road tractor to show up so we can lift them up out of the ground. I am so stoked for them to be gone..

Who thinks it would be cool to put the cornbinder cab on the slick chassis??? I do.

LOL, That's what the machines are for, we'll give the rear a lift. We dug the wholes so they would be low. ON wheels = no extra taxes..

Greg, the van would be cool but the windows would need to be closed in.
