Default Rest In Peace Dad

I haven't posted in awhile but in honor of my dad's (fellow car guy) passing and my birthday today, I thought I would shoot a shot of the nearly completed upper garages. Only 7 more garages left to do but it's a start!

Love you dad you will be missed even if you were a Corvette Guy I have forgiven you for that!

Happy Birthday - nothing better than to have found memories of your father especially if there are car's are involved.

Beautiful car collection - what lift do you have?

Happy Birthday, and a good way to remember your dad.

BTW I would store the Speedster with top up, not latched.

Thank you. It is an Advantage lift. Very nice solid and smooth lift. I use one in my lower garages too.

Hey Dirk... Happy Birthday; very cool post and photos. You will never get over the passing of your father. However, you have some great memories and I have no doubt he was damn proud of you.

Happy Birthday! Its so nice you were able to share your passion with your father while he was alive- I am sure he was thrilled.
yesterday was my oldest daughter's 17 birthday and while she is not a car nut like her father, she still knows the classics and can hold her own. Its cool to have that bond among others.
Enjoy and drive your collection in good health.

Thanks for the kind words. Make lots of memories with your daughter. My son is a car but too. Loves Porsche but prefers old American Muscle. At 13 he is a very old soul. Give him a rag and some Bob Marley and he will polish my GT500E all day.
