this may have been covered before, if not,, I have a slant that I want to store, here are photos of using scrap 4x4 and 2x4 and wheels to make a rolling storage rack.

Don't matter where you sit, if you still hang on after the first turns and a steep downhill, you're the winner anyway! :lol: :lol: :lol:

(I made one years ago!)

Very nice! That new garage is ALMOST too nice to work on cars in. :D

I'd post some pictures of my garage, but it's not presentable yet. (And I've got secrets in there... :shock: :wink: :roll: :lol: :D )

Rob, DT's garage is top notch. Matter of fact this garage is just for his slanted projects! He has another one for the everyday stuff!

first time I have ever had a place just for projects, its going to be nice.
Did the epoxy floor myself,, did a lot of research on that, if anyone is considering doing one of those, I'll tell what I learned.

i was gonna say, the floor looks nice! im hoping that after this years lease is up (june-ish) to find a place with a garage thats a little more sealed than the current one, granted, my last place all that remained of the "garage" (as oldblue can testify as he helped with my old coilovers getting in the way of the new gas tank issue last year) was a concrete pad with a cinder block border...

I bought a couple motors up by Detroit a few years ago. One was on a home built roll-around, the other was on the carriage from a shopping cart. :lol:
