[Mgs] Mess, run out of space

Hey Friends,

I have run out of storage space and the garage is a mess.

I'm going to have to go through everything and make some changes.
That probably means boxing up even more parts and moving them to
storage.  But first, here's how the TD looks now, complete with a
stack of new tires-in-waiting.

The wheels are being media blasted as I type and today, I bought the
wheel paint to refinish them.  Once that's done and given a day to
allow the paint to cure, I'll get the tires mounted and balanced.
They will then go into storage awaiting installation.

And just for the fun of it; In addition to the storage shelves, here's
how the work benches look now.  The first picture is of what used to
be the 'dirty' bench where things came apart and were cleaned.

The tools, not in the tool chest, are all English, except for the
Whitworth tools.

The next picture is of what I once called the 'clean' bench where I
assembled various clean bits.  Tools here are all metric (for no
reason other than the fact that the last engine I built, was
European).

Sadly, both benches are now 80% storage, and 20% available for work.
That's gotta change - and will be changed over the next few days.  If
only I could leave the TD parts alone long enough...
