I have been resisting the urge to post a picture of my Veltex station until it was completely finished...I am not yet done with it...

Very cool building, I like the antique look. How tough are those Veltex 6 footers to come by?

WOW! I think we would all like to do something like that! You're fortunate to have the room and what a fantastic building to do it with! Thanks for sharing! I think I'll go out and drive around looking at old buildings today and just wish!

I don't think I could have waited that long if I had something that has come together this nicely. However, waiting for the snow made it dang near perfect. Guess what my screensaver is for this week? Thanks for sharing.

Hey that is awesome. Love the Veltex. Those 6 footers dont come around to often. I also like the old Ford tow truck. I makes a nice screen saver too

Perfect, just absolutely perfect!! how many ghosts you got hanging around there? I'd be honored to include this (and any inside photos as well) in the "garageaddiction website. If you give tours, maybe I could talk Les into a day trip sometime when the weather clears? We're only a couple of hours south of you. Rod http://www.garageaddiction.com
