Re: Sparky's 1978 Silverado Build "Addiction"
Sorry for the confusion, I moved this and the next post from my Dads79GMC build thread. Didn't want to intermix this post with what Jayson is doing with my Dad's 79 GMC.

Like most of you, I live in a somewhat normal neighborhood. I do have a second detached garage (24x30) with an enclosed staircase going upstairs. So, I've been thinking about how do I not upset my neighbors, when, at some point I do more that just rattle-can painting (or harm myself)? By no means will I ever paint a whole vehicle at one time....I will do cab, or do a fender or two at a time, spread over a long period etc. I decided to utilize the space under my stairs to assist in my attempt to cut-down on vapors heading outside. I got a hold a 1600 CFM fan that I mounted on the exterior wall, installed a solid exterior door with a threshold and created a space for the 20x20 filters. I need to finish drywalling the interior and sealing the room from within. More work to do. Hopefully it works. I will frame in a temporary booth when needed that will include intake filters. I'm using 20x20 Paint Pocket Aerators. I guess it'll be better than nothing!!! ?
Pictures:
1. After installation of exterior door and removal of drywall
2. Had to cut a couple 2x4" studs (not load bearing)
3. Replaced Drywall and cut openings
4. Exterior shot of exhaust fan
5. Framed in 20x20" in opening. I build some inner frames for the Paint Pockets exhaust filters.
Thanks Mike
