Re: Bought a F@RD!, big block EFI 460 1-ton... "PROJECT COUSIN EDDIE"

cousin eddie has a roof over his head now.. finally got around to setting up the 10x27 king canopy garage. Since this canopy was made with 6'6" side walls, I had to buy 10' poles at Lowes. I pounded them about a foot into the ground and bolted every single connection. TSC has great deals on bulk bolts, I used about 70 1/4 bolts, nuts and lock washers... should be more sturdy that originally intended.

As you can see the RV sticks out a bit, I installed the zipper door after these pics and I am going to make some inserts to make it wrap around the nose of the RV.

Remember, this canopy was/is on clearance for $150! and $100 to ship it all. New poles cost me $80 so for about 6 months rental storage i'll have this paid off!
