Re: I've been waiting 35 years for today.
Congratulations on the start of the rest of your life.......you will wonder how you manage to stay so busy, but now you can do things on your schedule. The workshop sounds wonderful....be sure and put adequate electrical where you need it as well as compressed air.......prior proper planning prevents piss-poor performance!

Re: I've been waiting 35 years for today.
Yes, congratulations! The trick to retirement is having hobbies, if you don't your health will decline. Seriously.
Model A Fords as hobbies are about as good as it gets!! Enjoy that new garage! |

Re: I've been waiting 35 years for today.
Congratulations on being retired. I'm planning for April 2016 to finally do it and start getting all my stacked up projects. I would have thought you would use your Manley gantry to hoist those cars off a trailer. Take care, watch your health and make the most of your retirement.
