Thanks, it will be nice to finally be able to fit all my vehicles in one
spot.  The guy that had it before stored two 40' rv's in it... I just want
to put in a lift. :)

Nice size Shop you got there JB... When I built mine 28 X40x 10 high. I was 
given a Hot air heater from a Mobil storage/office ( read mobile home ) I 
scrounged up a 275 gal tank out of the local paper for free and built a box 
and got some 8" duct work.. from a local surplus supply house.So it was done

on the cheap.. but it heats  my shop all year  for 165 gal last year and I 
keep the temp at 55 deg and turn  when I first get there and plan to work.. 
but even at 55 deg is OK. Most of the times unless I am painting .

Theses units turn up regular in the local paper.. or call your local  Mobil 
home dealer.. they take them out of homes they take  in trade and sell them 
as salvage when they scrap the  trailer...

Propane is another neat unit.. I good friend of mine has a Bull Dog unit.. 
it is in Hemmings motor news and some other hobby car rags.. He happy  it's 
in the basement of a old bank barn and keeps his shop toasty warm.. he has 
city gas ?..so it was a no brainier..$$ wise..
