Must have shop tools

Let's see, when I hit the shop I usually do the following,
- open the door (overhead 16')
- turn on the lights, have plenty of lights - the more the better
- turn on the radio
- open the air compressor valve
- start looking for whatever tool I need...

So, I guess I would go for plenty of tool cabinet/storage space. You will probably be amassing lots of small hand tools and air tools. Specific places to put them are sure nice. Shelving for tools, parts, paint, etc. Good sturdy workbenches. Wood will do for most things, but you will want at least one metal bench for welding/cutting on.

Then, I have a set of wood sawhorses that I built from a simple pattern. I made them just a little taller than normal so that I can use one and the tailgate of my pickup truck for the other end - it just makes it a little more versatile. They are also stack-able for less space when not in use, and the legs are made from pressure treated 2X4 so they can store outside. I made them several years ago and they are still plenty sturdy. Right now they have my Duster body sitting on them. Let me know if you would like the plans or a picture and I will see what I can do for you.

You mentioned a rotisserie. We have one and it darn sure makes restoration work on the underside a lot easier. It doesn't take up a lot of storage space either. It can make that work on the underside so much more easier and therefore quicker to fix. Time is money...

How big is your shop?
Good luck, keep us all posted!
