Just remember - when you have some hooks a wall becomes a verticle floor.

You can also add that the ceiling becomes another storage place.

But Vern,
Your fine arrangement takes all the FUN out of the SEARCH!! I still cain't find my hood! (I "think" that was excuse # 31, for not finishing Vermin??)

Someone mentioned black & white pics----Took me forever to find 35 MM, black & white film----Now the batteries are DEAD!

Yes, Mr. Eagle (Idiot Light) is a little crazy. Here is his version of Garage Art.

Reading some of the posts drove me to pull out my copy of the 1928 local paper....The Kelseyville "The Sun" newspaper....Where I see the Kelseyville Garage offering a special on "Genuine Ford Batteries"....13 plate and Rubber case now $11. General Motors had a large ad reminding you to come see your next car there...offering "7 famous cars with 86 models and the GMAC low cost Purchase Plan. Models $495 to $550. And....A 1/4 size page ad from Ford Motor Company...with heading:
"Protect Your Investment in Your Model T Ford". Inviting you to come in and get a quote on what new parts would cost to keep your investment up to snuff! Last but not lease...is the Willys-Overland ad "Announcing The Worlds Lowest Priced Six! The New Whippet Six 5 passenger coach $695."
Fun reading. Gil NoCal

Holy Cow, Chris. If I ever get to California again, I'm going to look you up. I would love to hear the stories on those old Harleys.
