Spring Cleaning!

Finally! I used the 80 degree weather day here to take the opportunity to get rid of the last reminents of winter. I cleaned the blown in debris and leaves from underneath the work benches, scrubbed the floors, put away all the accumulated non-car items and hoisted the snow blower through the trap door and into the attic. I even re-painted my workbench top.



Hey, I even have room for another car, now! BASH!! That was my wife slapping me upside the head. :D



I even stocked up on SuperBlue brake fluid and Mobil 1 oil for all the upcoming fluid changes this coming season. Things are getting back in order now and I am finally starting to get in a "car" mode.



Now, can anybody do anything about this fuzzy yellow pollen? Aargh!

Looks great. Pray for rain to settle the pollen. Our dogwoods are almost in full bloom and all the cars here are turning yellow.
 
it must be great to do your own oil changes etc. I see you have a LIFT! Rotate tires as well!!! you lucky dawg!!!! Would LOVE to have a set up like that!
 
I just cleaned my garage last weekend, and after seening yours, I think I need to spend another weekend now.



Man -- nice garage
 
Looking good! I just spruced up and painted my garage as well. I used some paint left over from the previous owner of my house. Its a light blue, and it looks terrible!! I'm going to the hardware store for some cheap gloss white tomorrow.



As far as the pollen, judging from my allergies and the film on my truck, I thought I had the market cornered here in Jersey.
 
Wow! Even a TV. (The "steering wheel on the window" has me puzzled.) If that's a floor drain....I'm totally envious.:up

The steering wheel is so I can sit on the floor and make car noises, pretending to drive. :D



Seriously, its a small diameter Momo wheel that I install on the BMW when I do autocrossing. :xyxthumbs



And yep, that's one big honking drain! ;)
 
Nice cleanup and garage, Brad!



You have a wheelstop showing in your first photo. What's that made of? My wife (though it hasn't happened yet!) would love to have something that keeps her SLK from hitting the wall.



Did you have a Ferrari at all? I see the flag flying!

Oops - don't worry about replying - I've just seen your explanation in a previous post.

OK. It's settled. The First-Ever National Autopians Meet-Up should be held in Brad's garage. I'm sure the wife and neighbors won't mind. :D



Brad, I'm still commiting several of the Deadly Sins over that garage of yours. :bow
