'59 Plymouth Forum

Last January, when the first mason fell off the planet and things looked really bleak, I wrote:

(*sigh*) I don't think I'm supposed to have this garage. Maybe I'll just chuck the rubble back in the trenches, and forget about it.

A lot has changed since then. The railing around the deck just went up yesterday -- and today I rolled out the 9x20 G Floor mat that came recommended by Dick Kock (thanks for the tip, Dick! Here's the info for the flooring, for anyone who's interested: https://59plymouth.net/59forum/view ... =4404#4404).

There will be painting to do when the pressure treated lumber dries out, I'll want to run power and lighting to the deck, a water line for Marie's plants, etc. But the job is largely complete -- here's some pix. All's well that ends well!

P.S. With a bit of luck, and if I can keep the old boy running -- Faulkner will come home next weekend, for radiator repair and a much-needed tuneup

Thanks for the update, Dan, it must be a good feeling to see your garage dreams come to fruition! ---John

Actually, Faulkner has other plans for Matthew No, that white paint is UGL DryLok. We haven't had a good rain in a while, we'll see how it helps. Also, I flashed the wall to my neighbor's gutter on the other side -- that should help immensely.

...and after winning the judgement against the first contractor, his property is now going up for sheriff's sale. If I get anything out of him, I'll pay someone to stucco. And if I don't... at least I'll get satisfaction that he's sleeping on the floor

Dan,

My offer to do the stucco still stands. You will have to rent some tools though because my mixer won't get on the plane since it weighs more than 79 pounds
