<VV> Shop flooring (Ray R.)

[Ray Rodriguez III]

That is more or less why I want to do it!  It is the- dare I say 
traditional- hot rod shop floor.  And yes it may be "overdone" from that 
point of view, but I've only ever been in two garages in my life that 
actually had it... usually I only see it in the magazines =).  The idea is 
to make my shop look like something out of a magazine as much as possible.
