daydreaming

There's this abandoned/empty gas station or car repair shop about a mile from where I live.....



It's the L shaped building in the middle here:

Now, if only I would find the dayjob I'm looking for.... I'd find out from the city who owns it, and maybe rent or (gasp) buy it... :)



I have a second mechanic lined up, and some export business waiting to start off... parts and complete cars.



Mostly though it would be for fixing my own cars :D



Wife wants us to starty a restoration business, not just beetles but other classics too. (Bigger market).


One is allowed to dream, right?

And why the heck is that building sitting crooked there? Jeez.

Moved by a flood/hurricane? Maybe it was built before the road and other buildings nearby? Maybe it's build on top of an ancient stone structure covered with arcane runes, and the builders didn't want to mess with the Cthulhu feng shei?

And I was going to dig a basement and use it to dump all used motor oil...... :D

However, don't say I didn't warn you when a sinkhole swallows up your shop.

It's Florida - how would you notice?

Hmmm...do Florida residents read Fark?

GET IT !!!

then you can sponsor me to come and work for you, and I'll get my green card :-)

I've been looking into emigrating - and it looks about impossible these days :-(

Go for it Jan things are getting good in the VW restoration business, I'm still getting swamped with work.

The hardest thing is finding qualified workers. I'm always looking for someone thats motivated and willing to get dirty while haveing fun.
