Whats in YOUR garage & whats BEEN in your Garage

Post by BackyardRest »

Thought I would start a new post as to what slick you have in your garage or whats been there.

FIne example from Jonas:

Image[/quote]

Its just unbelievable to me how many slicks are out there and how many are being fixed, restored and just driven.

I am going to have to start spending more time here so I do not miss so many posts. Keep them coming any and all slicks from small to big.

Projects, already restored, daily drivers. ANything slick

This way we can find stuff in a single post. This in no way is meant to take away from the already good posts like a few who throw in a pic here and there. I had no clue there were so many owned by people on this forum.

I will post a few pics of my own soon. Just thought I would start with Jonas's fine examples and hope he posts a few more of his done truck and his project on the trailer. GIves the rest of us motivation to complete ours.

My '65 was in a 'garage' for a couple years...

...but it got booted outside this winter & the F250 took it's place.

Image

The F250. :D

My red '66 is all tucked away right now, but here's an old pic of it in a garage. :P

My Charger is currently my garage queen. Here is it wearing it's new NOS fender I recently found. :)

I feel so poor. I do not have a slick in the garage and never have..........Its a one car garage that is not big enough to get the slick in and then get out of the truck :( My 65 F100 is about 75% done and I have "several" in varing degrees of being running, spread out in the "community (friends wrecking yard and someone elses back yard" Does that count...........Ross

These are my garages. The 63 I hope will go to the painter by the first of March and then can go to the new garage for final assembly.

Nice SHOP! What size is the new shop?
Where abouts in Phoenix are you located?

Nice truck pics from all so far! Just think how many more slicks will be on the road in a year or so time when we get them done. That in turn will get more people interested in them. Keep the pics coming whether you slick is in garage or not. Not all of us are lucky enough to have a place in doors to work on them or even store them. Myself very fortunate to have a good workshop. A bit cramped but comfortable temp wise.

Anyone currently building a new shop? or just finished one. How about some more shop pics?
