MGB Short but significant drive for my MGB today

Today I drove the MGB on a very short, but important drive...

...back to my new shop! Being able to have this shop was one of the major reasons why I wanted to move. This finishes up the building construction, though I still have to run power and gas out there, and as you can see from the video we still have to do all the landscaping (mostly gravel, with a small amount of grass, some trees, and lots of natural ground cover -- we live in a high mountain desert environment at 6500' so lush grass is a bad idea). Exciting stuff indeed!

The shop is 36'x40' and about 15.5' up to the trusses inside.

Sadly, this is the last drive for the B for a while -- it's time to pull the engine and do a rebuild, so it will stay in that shop until the engine is done. Still, it's so nice to have space to work. A true dream space. I keep going out there just to sit and soak it all in.

 
That's terrific, Drew!
 
Drew,
That looks great! I'm still drawing up my shop plans and I'm probably 9 months out before I finish.
