Nice one AstroGuy. But the paint isn't the original one, or is only the photo?

I have a 2 car garage in the back of the house where I actually do the work. I bought this house mostly for the garage. I had another house just like it 2 blocks away for about 30 years. That is where I built the racecar. Garage is almost 28' deep.

I was feeling  a little under the weather yesterday so I called in sick  . Then  I started to plan my day. First, the 2 boys needed
their inspection done
so I got them out of bed and one by one, proceeded down to the shop. I took the Alfa last so I could take a spin to get the oil nice and hot for my
last oil change of '08. Here he is in the shop  .
 .
After he was properly stickered, I ventured down to one of my favorite spots. This
 and this
 .
Never did get to finish what I really started out to do though

Yep, took that last December just a few miles north of my house. I still go to the beach on Christmas day usually Mission or Pacific but sometimes La Jolla.
