Great site here guys. Got a new boiler installed about three weeks ago and this site has been alot of fun and help. Have a 18x21 Eagle carport coming this Monday (Dec 3rd) Finally. Have been very,very patient with Eagle carports. New CB 6048 will sit under with just the stack sticking out . I built a foundation for the car port like a pole barn with posts in ground and caped with 4x4 rails to support carport. Will post some pics next week. :pic:
Tons of information here and lots of smart members. I`ve got over 9 hours logged in to the site here (love how it keeps track of that) :thumbup: and I see many many more to come
Have my morning coffe with you guys everyday. Thanks again, Pit Crew.

Thanks Johnny, this whole experience has been fun. Probably will add sides to the carport later. They showed up at 6;15am (in the dark) and worked with coal miner type hats for the first hour and done by9;30. fast but sloppy, I guess you get what ya pay for. But it will serve its purpose.

Looks great!! I too usually spend my mornings here and also evening. I guess I just have no life. But I love soaking up information and ideas and pass along what I can.
Nice setup!!
-
More pics, Got some lights run this mornning and laid down some pallets and started stacking some wood. Finish the wood tomorrow.

Hi Pitcrew: That's nice set up you have there. I love the carport idea.
Is that Farmall a Super "A"? Or, just the "A"? It was on the Fsrmall super "A" that I learned to fine points and safety of tractor operation.

Roger, that is a 1946 A. Super A`s came out in `51 I believe and only till maybe `55. Got a few other RED tractors also....

Man, that's a beautiful collection of "Red" tractors you have there. My dad also used to own a Farmall Cub. It was small but it did everything we asked it to do. I miss that little tractor. My dad gave one of my older brothers the Farmall Super "A". He lets me operate it occasionally. Okay, I'm drooling now...better go. Roger

pitcrew very nice line up.....my older brother has a m also painted black....he likes to be the odd ball..... his m is stripped down to 4,500 with him on it with 15.5 on rear....mine is lighter to begin with being older and i want to make 4,500 with cut 18.4's in future....but will pull hot stock class....
Your boiler set up looks good main thing is they work well and heat the house alot better and cheeper than fuel oil.....

Pitcrew,
I'm from Mt. Airy, N.C., I know what you are talking about by "Tanned" men.
It's amazing, (3) of the largest carport companies in the U.S. are from Mt. Airy.
-
I have to setup a carport, I actually sell them ( and shelters) on eBay but my town is a pain so I have been putting it off
