My garage is 24x24. Considering that my son and I have built 6 or 7 cars in this garage and have 3 more projects (some very disassembled) around the property I know that it appears like we are hoarders.
Currently I’m in the process of re-assembling one of his projects that has the interior gutted (parts around the basement, shed and general vicinity of my property haha), I decided that I wanted to relocate a piece of pegboard from one end of the garage to a side of the garage. So I had to empty the 64”x36” piece of pegboard that has been here prior to starting all of the projects. I can safely say that removing all of the tools, parts and misc stuff from the pegboard made me feel like I might, just maybe a ‘might’, be considered a hoarder by some.
Here is a pic of the empty pegboard :
Doesn’t look that bad eh?
Here’s what was on it :
I found things that I forgot I had. Spare turbo flanges I found on sale - everyone should have 4 spares T4 and a T3 flange, 200-4R shift shaft linkages, of course a spare v-belt (or 20) for test fitment purposes except half of them are new, carb parts (wow I must’ve been high on life back then to save any of that), 280z intake and exhaust gaskets, some minor John Deere parts, and more budget engine and body tools than I remember buying. My favorite is the 14 spare LS head gaskets that are ‘re-usable in a pinch’.
Jesus, I am a hoarder lol.
I should take some pics of ‘my half’ of the basement, the shed, and the sunroom. But if I did that, then that would confirm that my wife isn’t wrong. Hoods, fenders, seats, turbos, complete rears, doors, inner fenders, and of course some motors (6 on stands) and transmissions (3), misc piping, ignition, more carbs (????), etc.
Am I a hoarder?
p.s. I have 5 engines at work……but only one transmission (smh)
