Re: Sonoma GT 0334 - Build Pics
Good Morning All,
Okay I haven't had time to work on the truck the last two weeks.
Seems working on the Garage has taken precedence. It's very hard to be in the garage when it's 20 degrees.
I needed to build an attic so I could have a place to put the parts once I disassembled the truck.
So plans are to build an attic over the front half of my garage.
Sixteen twenty foot 2 x 8's, ten sheets of 1/2" plywood & twenty-one eight foot 2 x 6's later we have an attic.
Next time I plan to get some friends to help. Those 20 foot 2 x 8's are brutal to lift by your self.
Eight more Ten foot 2 x 6's for the vaulted ceiling (need the height for the lift).
Did I mention I hate ladders let alone working at 12 feet in the air?
Now it's time for the itchy stuff.
Okay the back half of the garage is Insulated.
Now I need to put up a temporary wall and insulate the new attic floor.
I almost forgot -- I really need to clean up this mess.
Okay parts update.
The Mallory Crank Trigger for the project came in today.
Thanks to Mike Lee at Race Proven Motors for the support.

Temporary Curtain to keep the heat in the back half of the garage.
Wait till you see the permanent curtain.
It's all organized and ready to work.
So in the end.
16 - 2 x 8 x 20 foot boards
21 - 2 x 6 x 8 foot boards
10 - 4 x 8 x 1/2" sheets of plywood
3 - 8.6' x 11.6' Tarps
1 - Attic Ladder
1 - Fluorescent Light
4800 Staples (arm really hurts)
One Hammer Stapler
6 Rolls of R-13 Insulation
5 Rolls of R-19 Insulation
146 Pro Vents for the Vaulted Ceiling (not foreseen in the budget)
2 - Craftsman Rolling tool chests (also not in the budget)
It's complete and I'm to tired to work on the truck.
Did I also mention my wife never complained once during this project and all the hours I spent working in my garage.
