Default Thanks Devia and Eyal951!!!!!

Thanks for helping me out with organizing my garage for 13 HOURS STRAIGHT!!! Many 944 and 951s have gone to heaven from the garage but the organization was never as good as it should be until now. I will post some pictures if I can find the "before" and take some of the "after" pictures. This picture is of the unfinished part of the garage. Now, just about every square inch of the garage is used in the organized sections. Now all we have to do is sort the 10s of thousands of bolts and nuts by size, length, and thread pitch.....

Since you're in SoCal, you could blame the first pic on an earthquake.

Nice to see you have your stuff organized. I always get extremely frustrated when I can't find a tool/part that I'm looking for.

How many cars can you get in your garage?

Hey Lugo

Julie said you had a pile of stuff for me.

You still got that around. You never told me how much $$

Particularly need the Power Steering Adjuster and pivot bolt.

Almost lost my inspection sticker because of that.

The first picture is NOT a "before" picture. It is the part of the garage that is NOT YET ORGANIZED STILL. I had to buy a 3rd rollaway tool chest (over 6 ft tall) and its all in the garage along with a 5 ft tall sandblaster, 6.5 hp compressor, 10 ton hydraulic press, 50+ used tires (in the crawl space), 2 sets of wheels, 30 big crates of motorcycle parts, 2 engines, 3 transmissions, washer/drier, water heater, and over 3000 old plastic wrapped playboy magazines along with more than what the pictures show all in a 2 CAR GARAGE of a townhouse. Normally, I have 2 cars parked in there too.

I would imagine that it looks better than just about anything we could imagine If I would have known those were there I might have gone and helped out.

Talking Garage cleanup!

Legoland951, you are most welcome! I very much enjoyed your girlfriend's Chinese cooking for lunch, that helped fuel us along.

Oh, yeah; that's the side we didn't get to yet. I'll be working a little bit on that tomorrow, we need to get a car in on that side, and keep the other side open for repair work, ie, my car tomorrow.

This is the SECOND time I've worked on this garage, lol.

Well, as for sorting the nuts and bolts, that can be done sitting down, lol.

Oh, if anyone else wants the "Dynamic Duo" to straighten up and clean their garage, let us know, heheheeh.

- Julie
