How big is it ? I have 24 + 40 I need to get it insulated like yours . How many sheets did you use to cover your walls ? Thx Dave
The snow stayed on the garage roof and melted in place for some reason, never did that before. It's 30' X 40' and I had a contractor build it so I never counted sheets just dollars.... thirty five thousand and another four thousand for wiring and lights.

So true.

When people ask me how much my M37 cost, I tell them that the truck was far and away the cheap half of the deal. The workshop, the tools, and the spare parts are what really costs money in this hobby! :lol:

You got it, my truck was free but was missing so much stuff that I have spent many thousands getting it where it is today NOT counting labor, it's a money pit that sucks up every extra dollar I have.

I got a good deal on my garage but spent a boat load of money on my truck so it all evens out in the end ........ I tried to build a bigger garage but my township said no way gotta stay under 1000 sq feet ! I'll keep a look out for you Carter since we are in the same area , sure would enjoy seeing your truck !
