I'm still here, and still have that box of parts for the Tuna Truck, but don't have it's new address! Plus without photos of the new garage I'm not sure I believe that this is your truck...

Wow, that's amazing to hear!
Thank you for your service
Keep it up, Tuna :)

x3 and I am not just saying that to drive this over to 100 pages.
I always check this thread. Now in addition to the Tuna Truck I will be looking for house projects.
I still read all about it.
I've been checking for updates as well. Your work inspired me to finally get back to my El Camino project that I've neglected for years. I've really enjoyed this thread!
Still following.

OK folks, here is the brief 'walking into my garage from the driveway' view of the truck circa yesterday evening.
Next to the truck:
Yes, I still have those infernal tires.
More to come...
Your new garage looks huge compared to the last one.
Im ALWAYS watching this thread
It's not really bigger, but it has an external shed (walled off) for mower, bikes and such, as well as an internal workshop area:
As you can see, it isn't useful yet, but once I get the 983,195 things done first, it will be a good task to organize the garage properly.
New garage looks like an ideal space to get the rest of the work done.
Following along as always.
One hundred yet? I don't get as much time on the forum as I used to but I still check this thread.
Nope.
Still following.
How have we not bumped 100 yet?
Now is it 100?
I don't usually do things like this, but it's Tuna, so......
Are we there yet? Nope
I know that we can whore up a great thread better than this guys. Start hotlinking longed 72 chevy trucks! We'll get to 100 on sheer awesomeness!
Edit: missed it by this much.
My work here is DONE
Imma drop this here anyway.
I'm not going to turn this into a house thread, but I'll give you an idea of what we're up against. So far, we have assembled a bunch of furniture, changed the fan in the screen room, took down lots of blinds and added lots of curtains, swapped ranges (HVAC guy ran a gas line for us), swapped dishwashers, swapped refrigerators, swapped thermostats, added our alarm system, got a new bed for Tunakid #4, new faucets in master bathroom, new lights in master bathroom, painted wall in master bathroom, added various kitchen drawer organizers, hangers, clips and knobs, and a few other doodads that I am forgetting.
Here is the master shower that we suspect is elaking:
New curtains:
This work in progress is going to be a kitchen island. We're not sticking with the cardboard top (CAD!!) but rather searching out a walnut solution. The kitchen already has a small island, but this one will add storage space and replace the kitchen table. You will be able to sit at it.
Scary stains over the kitchen:
New lights and faucets in the master. I painted this wall last night.
This has to go:
Scary painted over stains in the laundry room:
This door has to be replaced:
Scary water damage to the sill of a window in the stairway:
Second windowsill in the same area:
