Re: Model a habitats
I was lucky to get a used top assembly off eBay. I had to do a bit of a fix up on the part that connects to the quarters.

Re: Model a habitats
OK, here is my Model A (and Model T) man cave. It is a little slice of heaven for me. Steve Becker of Bert's Model A in Denver will recognize the black coupe-I'm taking good care of it. That is my 26 T Coupe in the background. And a 31 chassis, for my Brookville Roadster project. I have finally thinned out my stuff to where I only have 3-4 lifetimes worth of project in my shop. But it's good for you-gives you a reason to live to a ripe old age.

Re: Model a habitats
Hi Gents,
Two pictures of my caves. A double garage with my 911SC and MGB. A 4 car garage with my 28 Model A RPU, 29 Chevy Phaeton, 250SL Pagoda and as you can see my 67 E Type still fast asleep under her blanky.

Re: Model a habitats
Hi Mike,
At least we could hang em sideways. Imagine if they came out upside down, they would have been useless.

Re: Model a habitats
I just saw this thread!! even though it is old I am glad it was found again and I am posting up some pics of "The ANNEX". My grandmother named it when we moved in back in 1982. Gramps and Dad had cars and parts spread all over the town in various garages. They were happy to get it all under one roof. Every day I work in the shop I feel fortunate that I was set up so well.

Re: Model a habitats
Don't feel bad. You are not the only one with no garage. Luckily for me my next door neighbor lets me use his, but my "workshop" is my basement, and my "paint booth" (for any part I can disassemble and take down to my house) is my garden tool room!
BTW how do you find your "tent garage" handles snow load? If I get one I can get another model A! |

Re: Model a habitats
I also have two of those Roundtop plastic shelters with slanted sidewalls. You loose too much space with slanted walls, and from now on I would only buy a metal shelter, such as Menards sells for about $900. Of course nothing beats a real garage with wood walls and insulation.
