(Pics) Put up some new siding and painted the old homestead

**james18n** · 11-22-2009, 04:52 PM

So I put up new siding on the back and one side and re-trimmed a lot of the house and got it all caulked up and shit.

If you look past the GTO and Mule, you can see how white and light green the house used to be.

I should have taken before pics but i forgot.

And the new look:

more new pics attached.

Is that a house, or one of those prefab trailer things?

It's a house, old house but its paid for. I remodeled the whole thing, put in central heat and AC. Wood floors and all that good stuff. Now I'm turning the garage into a master bed with a whirlpool tub in the attached bathroom.

Why? What the fuck is wrong with the world? A garage is very important.

Unless you have a separate workshop that you use as a garage or something. In that case, carry on.

Wasn't trying to be insulting, I was just curious. It has that kind of look like a prefab.

I have a shop that has an engine building room and can support a two car race team. And the garage on the house was big, but the door was small? wtf? But you have a point.

Yeah after looking at the pics, especially the back, I can see where you could get that idea.

also another oklahoman thing to do. I've noticed that what happens where I live is that instead of moving people just add on rooms to the house. Explains why there are all these houses with detached garages and houses with 5 bedrooms and only 1 bathroom.

I'm gonna clean up the backyard before too long. I had the cinder blocks to keep the dogs from getting into the old siding and under the house (the people before me took shit care of this place, I have turned it around big time)

Also, after I add the new room and bath it will be a 4 bed, 2 full bath house. I'm not a backwoods retard.
