cleaned up the rental garage a bit

Before and after.

Nothing like having half of a 2 car garage free.

Now, to park something I already have in there before a new car sprouts.

I put a pallet rack in the back that has all the M110 motors and stray M117 that filled the space on the first layer. The idea was to put a second layer on top of that, but it's about 6" too high for my engine hoist to reach safely.

If I dig it back out again, I have to see what happens if I don't put a bottom shelf in first. That or I have to find a bigger hoist. I had a huge truck one, but scrapped it when the cylinder died and the local rebuild couldn't find replacement parts and they were busy enough so they weren't interested in researching how to make do with what they had.

Wow, that's a lot of engines! By any chance, do you have a reverse light switch for a 280 SEL 4.5? It's on the driver's side of the trans under the shift lever.


Thank you.

Thank you.
A v8 neutral safety switch?
Yes, but I have to ensure that it's intact and functional.

Congradts ! It took me a looooong time, but I liberated my garage a few years ago. I have a few more things to clear out, but very happy I invested the time to make my garage an actual garage.
