    Just got a letter from my Dad! (Jim's Garage-Part II)

    I just got this great letter from my Dad today and I just had to share with the rest of the community! I know you guys love this garage makeover stuff as much as I do

    Dear Son,
    I know I have been a poor father, but in my defense, I had no idea until the court ordered the DNA test!

    To try and make amends, I will write the garage makeover products to you in my soon to be ammended will. I attached a few teaser pics since there is much to do before it is finished.

    The first show the Fujitsu split HVAC. It is a great unit and will warm up the UN-insulated garage in about 30 minutes. I have insulators coming next weeek.





    There is a close up of the interlocking tile with the edging during a door-open rain.




    I tracked some stuff in. Your Step Mom wanted me to clean it up. I wanted to show you the tile in less than ideal conditions. It isnt slippery when wet! Use your mocassins on this floor or as Ed said it is quite noisy if you dont put landscaping cloth under, as Ed,aka Porshe Pilot recommends. You wont sneak up on you know who with this floor!

    Last, some of the Gladiator Premier (GP) cabinets arrived. Six more should be in next week! These are the Crown Jewel of your inheritance IMO!




    Please will these to my grandsons cause they will last many lifetimes! They are welded of 20 gauge steel that is powder coated. Has magnets that will HOLD doors closed,and the biggest casters I have ever seen! I filled the tall one and asked your Step Mom to take a picture, I had the MasterBlaster in the Amazing Metro Bag you got me for Christmas on the bottom shelf.




    I'm sure she wouldn't purposefully cut it off of the Pic. She has almost quit beating me while I try to sleep. Maybe in a few years she wont make you call her Mrs, Olson anymore! I will update you as the garage evolves!

    Love, Dad!



    Well, there you have it! All I can say is I have the best Dad ever!!

    Dad, thanks again for sharing those with me! I hope you didn't mind me sharing them with the rest of the community!
    Oh, by the way those cabinets are simply incredible!! As much a you told me about them I am still blown away seeing them in person! Floor looks gorgeous!! Love the climate control!! Woohoo, you'll be knocking out those cars in style this year!! One other thing...guess what came in the mail today? :gidiup: Thanks for twisting my arm Dad!!

    Definitely an awesome dad! Better watch out Corey, his detailing addiction may surpass yours.

    He sure does Bobby! Stepma sure took some great pics to go with Dads letter too! . Although... She still won't acknowledge me when I call Dad she just hands the phone to him... Like it's my fault what he did before I was born?

    LOL! That would be difficult for him with as generous as he is!! I must say though knowing what I know... I think he surpassed it long ago! At least now I know where I get it from
