Good Luck

Shouldn't you be looking for a "garage" that meets your needs and has a house nearby ;)

Don't blame you, we have 60 acres and a portion of my barn made into a shop. Deer and Turkey hunting right behind the barn & no problem finding a parking spot.

BTW: Been planting 100% American Chestnut trees from nuts I collected around the US. Attached today's picture of one tree only 2 years old and already nearly 6' tall. The American Chestnut history is very interesting and I'm doing my small part to bring them back.

Man. I don't think I could ever move with all my crap, but If I did it would have to be to a place with a lot less people, where you would get FULL hand waves from people through there windshields. good luck fast.

Ed, how is the wife doing?   I'm glad you got it sold. Are you looking in N.W. Arkansas?  I'm like Ghost, way to much stuff to move. My aunt has got her place for sale just north east of town. I was in the middle of getting the money up when my uncle bought it in the early 80's.  >:(   Lots of ground, work shop for 3 cars and no nieghbors.  I've got great nieghbors where I'm at and they are car friendly. Fire up with open headers, they come over to hear!  :)

Sounds like things are moving smoothly for you and the wife, FATnLOW. Here's to hoping they continue that way.
I know one day when all my boys fly the coop I will have to down size, that will be a tough day. GOOD LUCK!!
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

"Wife says I don't know how to behave"
That's gold right there.
Sounds like you have the beginnings of a new adventure.
I will move one day, so I'm always trying to downsize, but for some reason, it always works in reverse.

Looks like 1993 was an auxiliary year? 1993 must be the transition year for 700R4 to 4L60E?

  dunno nothing about the 700r just know they are strong and overdrive works good....when I hook it up I want all things hooked correctly..what ever got to be done ..need done right. Guess Ill get my schooling on this when I have time..suppose to be a good tranny .gave$75.00 for it, so i need to send it to the shop ...when things calm down and I get settled....
