Your girl looks like she enjoyed the drive. The first time I drove a Jeep I put it in the stock pond. Grandpa had to fish it out.

How old were you?Nice setup!
That is a nice cruiser your daughter has pictured there!
Have seen you post on pirate and in the tp, you should just leave that toolbox in nashville before you leave

Ha! You wouldn't want it, it's not a Snap-On.![]()
Wife and I met in the military. She's still in and the military is moving us to Hawaii for three years. Since only one of us is in the military, they will only ship one vehicle. Any additional vehicle we'd have to pay to ship at about $2,100 per vehicle - one way.
I figure between shipping a vehicle there and back, I'll have an additional $4,200 in a vehicle and to me, it just doesn't make sense to do that.
As for the garage, I'm planning on having a single car. Not sure what we'll get there as far as a garage (on post housing), but we've been told we'll have either a one or two car. Considering the two-car I have here is deep enough to park two Jeeps on one side, I know we'll have having a smaller garage - even if it's a two car.
The down-sizing is good, though. Forcing us to eliminate even more clutter.![]()
I know the garage is a bit stuffed. I've been working on getting rid of excess stuff but it's been a process. Everything that we had in storage after the move is now in the garage so it's taking a while to sort things out and get rid of things we don't need/want.
Considering how much **** we had accumulated over the past 15 years, and the fact that all of the excess **** is now in the garage instead of storage, we're not doing too bad.At least with it in the garage I have the motivation to go through it instead of letting it sit in storage.

You going to miss your garage for sure....maybe in Hawaii you will get some outdoor space ....in that climate you should be able,to work outside more
Life is for me a continual process of sorting, organizing and tossing what's not useful...even our bodies sluff off cells continually and we're remade every seven years I've heard with new cells. According to Piaget, the famous Swedish scientist, teaching sorting techniques is one of the most basic learned behaviors and should be taught consciously to young children. Some are obd (obsessively behavior disordered) like me and enjoy the sorting almost as much as I enjoy the projects. I think Jack's enormous success in his 12 guage garage is a result of a very ordered mind and probably was taught to take care of things and that form followed function. He's a "mastersorter" so to speak.![]()


Dave,
We're renting the house we're in now, but own one in Georgia. We'll likely never go back to that house, but instead keep it as a rental property.
The stress of everything going on is wearing me thin right now. Dealing with tire-kickers with the Jeep sale, the move, and family health issues is more than I care to deal with right now.
I can't wait until this move is over. Will be a huge stress relief. I'm debating having the model A shipped to Hawaii (about $2,500) just so I can have it to work on while there. Of course I'd have to spend another $2,100 to ship it back, but it might just be worth it to be able to get out in the garage and work on it.
Undecided right now. Still debating it.



Side view of the engine/filter placement. Undecided where this will sit. Will figure it out after I stare it at for a while.

... you forgot to add :flipoff2:Obviously we arent over at Pirate4x4... no one mentioned OH MY GOD YOU ARE GONNA KILL YOUR KIDS WITH THAT SINGLE SHEAR CONTROL ARM MOUNT!
Looks awesome, I was eyeing that project too!

Very cool another garagejournal person who now lives in Hawaii.
I'm out in the Mililani area.
Did you bring your sick Model A with you?

What's up 89TJ! Glad you got there and got setup. I saw some old posts of yours and wondered how the PCS went. Good luck picking off all the moving stickers. Hopefully your cabinets is the first last and only item you'll have to file a claim on.
