I bought a house!
Hey guys, I bought a house. I got the keys in January and I've been working on it since. I haven't moved in yet because I've been really lazy about renovations, but it's getting there. I have the main living spaces furnished now so I can at least chillax here, although the master bedroom and the other half of the house isn't finished.
Still working on the house, so ignore tools/paint/etc that may be sitting around. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I found it on Craigslist. I think it was made around the 1970's by Plycraft. I've seen new fakes online for upwards of $800, and apparently they're not that good. This one was half that price, so I went for it. It's not bad. You don't sit in it like you would a real one though, so it's really just for looks, not design.

No, it's perfectly comfortable. It just doesn't have the same sitting and leaning position as the real one. I think this picture demonstrates what I'm talking about, real one on the right:

Nice place! I'm in the same boat. yes got my own place and the 86 got its own garage.
After closing, 1st thing I opened: the garage door for the 86, and not the front door for me. my dilemma right now: Mods vs Furniture.. |
