The storage place was only a hundred miles from my building in Wichita Falls. No mishaps along the way.

Time to wash a decade of dirt off this old camper. I think it's looking pretty good.

Nice trailer, was just looking at the prices on Airstream yesterday, they border on insanity. But it seems no one else can do a quality build anymore.

Very nice and it's nice to see using it.

I hope to be able to use my barn find a little bit at least this summer I don't want to haul anything with it but I'd like to be able to just take it for a ride...I'm getting there a little at a time.

Love the truck...the bucket seats are my interest. I have been debating on them in my '78 F100. Adult in me wants to keep the original look, but the kid in me wants the bucket seats. You know wins that fight....

For the past two weekends, I've been moving the rest of my old Continentals out of storage in Dallas, and moving them up to my building in Wichita Falls.

The old junker I moved Saturday the 6th went pretty well, even pulling it up a curved ramp from the underground parking garage was not too difficult. My trusty truck did the job well.

Last Sunday, I got started early and figured the move of the last Lincoln convertible would go just as well. Wrong!
I won't bore y'all with the details, but it was a real fight to the finish! My trusty truck never failed me, and I used it to drag the car on my dollies, up the ramp dragging the damn Lincoln with a seized rear brake, it was a total Boss!

Monday, I just walked around in a daze. I still haven't even unloaded it from the trailer! Lol!

At least I'm finally done with paying storage fees! It feels great to have all of my crap in one place, a building I don't owe a dime on!

I had a 67 Lincoln. 26,000 miles. I took the tire off to repair, original, and the oem part number sticker was still stuck to it. Sold it to a 14 year old who wanted to learn about cars and rebuild a classic. Ran n drove. 1200 bucks. Building the bench.

Nice rig!

I think if I were in that situation, I might just get everything rolling and tow-worthy over a few days, so I could simply hook up and go when moving them.
