Very nice!! That garage is huge!! Whereabouts in Oregon is that??

 

[Facimeor]

The closest "town" is Burnt Woods, population 34. Im about 25 miles from Corvallis (Oregon State University - Beaver NATION!), and 30 miles from Newport. Im right at the high point of the road to the coast, elevation 842ft.

Looks very peaceful there. Your Explorers look like new, any more pics?

 

[Facimeor]

yep, more pics of the 98 here:

The 97 is my beater. Runs great but is such a base level that it even has vinyl seats and no center console. The lightbar, spotlight and radio and siren setup have all been removed (and left some gaping holes as well ), but shes got an upgraded suspension I believe.

Amazing!
You're the kind of guy that I would bring a vehicle to that I wanted restored.
But then I would have nothing to do, lol.

Beautiful dog, views, shop, everything!

How do you feel about adoption?

I pretty much take care of myself. I could even sleep in the garage!

Eh, eh?

There is a loft in the shop, and a woodstove. Might be tough without a bathroom or running water out there....but since Im adopted myself and know how I "turned out"...I gotta pass

Welcome. Good job cleaning the 98 up, it was a mess when you got it. Your yard and view are things people dream of having, I'm jealous.

 

[Facimeor]

it was actually my 98 that Im working on cleaning up and fixing. My 97 is my beater. Its gone from 4WD to 1WD but just keeps getting me where I want to go. Its getting retired once the 98 is done.

Damn!

Good work though, I have been contemplating a carpet removal myself, but its not needed, my interior is pretty nice.

Welcome and don't worry bout ownin a camaro. Sometimes I get bored and buy a chevy so I will have something to work on.

 

[Facimeor]

it was one of my cheap builds. Car = $300, corvette 350 4 bolt and trans = $500, 14 second street car sold = $2300.

When it comes to profit I dont care what logo it has, lol.

I'm a proud owner of a 1968 rs camaro. Nothing wrong with owning Ford and Chevy

mmmm, 68 is my favorite year. I had an "arrest me red" 68 SS396 4spd back when I was in college in Tucson. That was a fast car.
