Yes I am pretty happy with my new work shop I have room for my 2 cars race engine etc
I have done a lot of work to it to make it “nice” the only thing I am missing from my old shop is the heated floor 😉

Nice!

I bought a 54 oval this year and the original color is also Iceland Green. Very hard to see from photos how it looks in real life.

Unfortunately it was repainted years ago in ceramic green. Only the inside is OG paint.

Suspension is almost original but droped spindels
Damper in rear is dual adjustable from avo (leftover from racecar)
Engine is a 1835 with kadrons (longblock was with the project when I bought it)
