New house.

Very nice Congratulations, bet the first one is the gardening shed and the last two are the shop. Now get some concrete poured in that building in the second pic.

Back when I was a yoot we had a similar building on my parent's property. They used it as the principle garage since they converted the garage under the split level into more living space. I yanked the 6 cylinder engine and replaced it with a 302 in that one. I wish it had a dirt floor. It was gravel. You will find every sharp rock in the mix when laying on your back trying to hoist up a transmission or such.

Yup. The wife wants the smaller building. It's got shelving all around it so she can store all her garden stuff.

As for the big shop, yes there are plans to eventually concrete it. But pouring 2400 sq ft at 4 inches minimum(I'd prefer 6 in thick slab) is gonna make my bank account cry.
 
That is an awsome garage, actually the whole deal seems pretty sweet. Congratulations. To ease the pain on the wallet, how about pouring the concrete in sections over time...
 
And now for a little humor at my expense. I completely forgot to get the water changed over to the new address. Went to the water dept and got my account removed from the old address. But they couldn't find the new one. Turns out, its controlled by another town. Nesbit water, Southaven trash and sewer. So I call the nesbit water assn...and they closed at 2pm. Crap. Call the after hours number and they say to come in tomorrow. Get home and find the water has been turned off. Freakin awesome. The wife is going to have a chicken when she gets home.

I've thought about that.

That was my first thought before I even got to the end of the thread (so far). Pick a corner for your workbench and Mustang.

Now you have something to think about on those long drives of yours: designing your garage. :yah

Oh and congrats on the house. The water issue :hide that is just some of the fun of a new house.
