We just finished my new big truck barn this week here in Hartland Vermont. Just in time to miss the first snow storms of our Vermont winter!

It took many more weeks than I had expected due to the contractors who did not follow through as promised! Its getting impossible to find anyone who knows how to work or who cares anymore!

The huge empty buidling with 12 ft tall garage doors and 14' ceilings now, amazingly! appears TOO SMALL! Now that I was able this week to finally load it with my 1925 Mack AC, my 1942 GMC AFKX COE Van, the 1950 Chevy ambulance, "Nadine" the 1954 Chevy COE, my 1948 Westwood travel trailer and the little subaru mini van! . . . Not to mention a few odd tractors and toys!

" grin grin grin grin grin grin grin Never enough room it seems for us big truck guys!

Congrats on the new barn, I wish mine was done. If the weather holds, I hope to have most of the frame up over the long Thanksgiving weekend. We had rain and snow last week, it is finally drying up, so work hopefully can get going again starting tomorrow night. (Tight budget, doing most of the work myself with help from my brother in-law, and family). After work and weekends only, it might be a long winter.
I also, would like to see pictures of your barn. It sounds like you built a large structure. If I may ask, what about some specs, how wide and how deep?
