Looking great Dave. Glad to see things are moving right along.

 

This is downright kingly. Well done, sir.

 

Competition to Brumos Collection ?

 

Ha! Not even close!

Finally pouring 80 yards of concrete into the wall forms this afternoon. 8" thick x 11 ft tall section of walls.

There were of course delays in getting all of the forms. Building is difficult to schedule these days because of competition for materials. Just over a month behind schedule...



Back of building...

 

It all starts with the right tools: "Ya don't bring a hoe and a wheelbarrow to a concrete pumping fight!"

 

Jumped up in the Sky Trac for a few shots...

 

Detail of the re-bar and forms with a bit left to fill... Cell phones will not work in this bomb shelter! Wi Fi only...






Only one story to go!

 

This weeks progress was moderate with lots of high forming and bracing for the upper sections of the walls. Late next week we should have the final wall pour and the roof trusses should arrive in 10 days...

 

Reminder to self, this is the goal... Sweat the details and keep pushing, winter will be here before you know it!

 

Looks like a new Porsche Center in the middle of nowhere!

 

I really need to go to see this place and all your very nice cars for real someday...
I'm retiring next year. If you ever set up something, I'll be there...
I really like your enthusiasm with the 928 and all your project Dave.
Keep posting any progress...

 

Bertrand,
You are welcome at my campfire anytime! No need for an event, just come when it is convenient (and the border opens)...

Dave, where will the in-ground Dyno be installed along with multiple 4-post lifts? You definitely have enough space

 

Darien,
Only one asymmetric lift and no dyno. This is not a "working shop" per se. I'll do most of my maintenance, but the purpose of this building is storage, display, pleasure, and a good way of holding/developing industrial zoned property as an investment. I know, it's not as exciting as building a full on "race shop"... I simply want a clean place to enjoy the toys.
Dave

 

Its not quite the middle of nowhere, but it is close!

Not sure we will be pouring the concrete into the upper forms this week, Having trouble with storms and high winds... Plus the trusses are delayed for two weeks because they are being trucked from Wisconsin and at 78' long and 16 tall they have to be on a special truck and low-boy trailer & escorted. The permit is taking longer than normal.
