Well having the most supportive wife in the world with my car addiction she talked me into a new house with a huge garage. Nice brick ranch in clarkston mi with 2 full acres of land and best of all a 7 car garage with a work shop and its on the water. Gonna be a long couple months getting all my stuff moved.

Good luck w/the house and move... You will like the added space for the cars.. Moving is a pain in the neck however.. I just went through it last year at this time.. Swore I will never do it again.. I was very fortunate enough to have a great group of close friends that busted their buts helping us move.. I told the Wife the next move is the cemetery plot.. But it was well worth it in the end.. I have a nice outbuilding for the cars and motorcycles.. The added room and bigger home is great!! We have about an acre and a half..

Welcome to Clarkston! Your place must not have been on the market when I was looking a year and a half ago.

I'm over by &quot;the venue formerly known as Pine Knob&quot;. I'll keep my eyes open for a hauler heading north with a bunch of cars and parts on it.

I'd like to have some discussion about that, when you are ready.

I have to spiff-ify my barn/garage too and am looking for inexpensive but effective ideas.

Wow! A 7 car garage! I wonder how long it will take until it's not big enough; you know it always happens. Just kidding, and good luck with settlement and the move. And I thought I had the BEST wife in the world. I really do feel that way about her, so if do you also, we're lucky guys. Again, the best with your transition.

Yea my wife tells me if I want it buy it, it doesnt matter what it costs. She definitely understands the auto desease I inherited from my Father.

The new garage is almost already full, being I have 6 Toys and looking for a 7th (55 chevy) to add to the stable.
