Just wait till something unloads a heap of oil on those pavers. Then you'll be screwed! In all seriousness though, that looks like an ideallic lifestyle to me. Mmmm 1UZ V8 and AU Turbo...nice.

Nothing wrong with a few conversation starters lying around.

Could just source a glass table top to put on top of the subie motor, instant one of a kind table that can be wheeled around. The falcon motor would probably be made to hold 6 beer bottles as well.

If I had a patio like that I wouldn't leave car parts lying around!

But maybe you dont have a shed like mine.

Why is her chain long enough to get out to the patio, is it to bring the meat to you for the BBQ?
