Guess what I got today :)
Tuesday, November 22, 2005 7:07 PM
A garage!! My dad came today to get all his stuff, so me my dad and Eric (NightmareSS) spend hours packing everything and loading up the truck and trailor so my dad could get his stuff down to florida. It doesn't look liek much, my dad owned his own company so our garage and a storage place and 2 floor shed was all work equiptment so it was packed so tight you couldn't walk through there. So once spring comes along I'll get some type of floor coating and were gonna reinsulate the walls and drywall and put up shelving along the sides. Its a real tiht fit because we cut off liek 10 feet of the garage and turned it into a laundry room many many years ago, so the car just BARELY fits long way, in the spring the selves at the front will be gone. But yeah I'm happy so I thought I'd share.
















Thanks again to Eric, I really apreciate the help, it mean alot.


So after emptying the garage we went to pick up the rental tables (for thanksgiving) and then started working on his car. He got a B&M short throw for his Cobalt SS/SC. Install was very simple except one HUGE problem.... we could not get the shift knob off to save our lives....








So after taking a hack saw and having to cut the stock shifter into 3 pieces and mangeling a few other parts (LMFAO) we got the old parts we needed to reuse and put it back together, all is well


It was a long and tiring day, I'm just glad its over.

it is small, not enough room to work on the car in there but its enough to fit the cars and keep it out of the weather which is good enough for me

Yea Kinda like that. Naw just kidding. We tried every trick in the CobaltSS.net forums but this was one stubborn shift knob. It wasn't comming off without a fight. So we gave it no choice. LOL !

It's truely was a fun night. And day for that matter. Ryan and I were just "Ripping apart the old cabinats that his dad was not keeping. All in all it was a good time.

yup. the garage life is nice. no ice on the windows in the winter, less bird crap, and a lot less kids throwing baseballs, footballs, basketballs, other balls at your car.
