What other toys do you have?
I'm curious what other toys the CLS owners out there have proudly amassed. Please post pictures of any vehicles/noteworthy toys you enjoy on a regular basis. I'll start.

Lew L - BEAUTIFUL collection. My big issue is I'm well out of garage space. Still seriously considering building an additional garage as there are plenty more toys I see on ebay I can't help but bid on. Looking for a well built tubbed out and blown 40s ratrod.

And definitely compliments on the 427 in your kirkham. I've got a ford 460 bored/stroked to 545 in the cobra. I think I know that same feeling you get everytime you go for a spin. It's sheer terror.

Thanks. The Kirkham is a lot of fun. It has a 484 ci Shelby aluminum big block, somewhere around 630 hp/tq. Not bad for a 2200 lb car. You should contact Kirkham about the Ford roadster they did with Ford GT mechanicals or the ******. Cool stuff, but I am not sure if they are on their website.
As far as storage goes, you tend to fill up whatever you have. Fortunately (or maybe, unfortunately), I started with a big empty barn.

484 Alum? Wow. Very impressed. I thought I was the only one with a traction issue but it seems you're more than familiar with that. There are worse problems to have. 
Out in sunny Phoenix, AZ there aren't many barns. Unfortunately, if I build an addition onto my garage I'm not only turning the house into more of a 'specialty property' (read: harder to sell/worth less) but it would effectively destroy the look and symetry of home. Kind of stuck w/ what I've got for now. Again, for now.
I will check out their site. I've always loved the Kirkhams.

The total lift with the 40" tires is around 14" extra. It's roughly 34" off the ground.
