Subject: Re: Parts for McLaren

Body:
It must be nice to have all these cars and this garage space...haha I
have 2 cars and one garage...My 86 Asc is in the garage of
course...and the garage is a one car, and there is no room on one
side (against a wall) and the other side there is barely enought room
to get by...thankfully my dad is a freak like me and my mom knows
better than to walk by it...haha. My other car is my daily driven 92
accord.
Anyway...I was at the ultimate car guys dream garage last week. As I
pull up the Loooong driveway I see this warehouse type building next
to a $500,000+ house (with a coblestone parking circle, huge deck and
an M class Mercedes in front). So I go in the garage (warehouse) and
it's 60'x40' with a lift. It's absolutly awesome. The ceiling is
like 30 feet high and there are 2 gigantic heaters heating the
place. One standard size garage door and another full size (to the
top) one, so he can put his trailer (used to tow his 8 second
Chevelle)inside. The floor was 6" ultra smooth concrete and of
course there was electric all over...I even saw what I think is was
220 outlet. Man it was awesome. Anyway, we can all dream right.
The guy was super cool too...he wasn't cocky or conceded or anything
either. There were 5 cars in there and you could get 4 rows of 3
cars (12) easily...I guess you could stuff at least 15. Awww man it
was awesome.
