    Welp, long story short this may not happen anymore.  The short of it is I talked to the inspector to take care of the building permit and everything was going swimmingly until the end when he remembered to ask me if I had another accessory building on the property and I said I have a detached garage.  I can't have more than one accessory building on the property and since I have the detached garage I can't have a shed.  I didn't see this until he sent me the 109 page ordinance and pointed me to the specific spot where it says that.  I can expand my 2nd garage to about 1,300 square feet but can't have a 140sq/ft shed.

    I did find a new chicken ordinance that would permit me to build a chicken coop with no size limit that doesn't go against my accessory building count and the inspector confirmed that.  After much debate I decided against building a chicken coop since it would give the city permission to come on my property at any time to inspect the animals.

    My last option is to plop it in the yard and see what happens but that carries a whole set of risks that I'm not willing to deal with.  The building inspector doesn't know my name or address so I'm not concerned about a surprise pop-in but all it takes is one person in a small town to figure it out, get upset and report me.

    City living sucks. Build a lean-to or something.

    Thanks to @Rekpoint for the deal on the e36 racing dynamics strut brace. Got it installed this morning on the coupe. Needed just a bit of clearancing on underside of hood and for the strut tower ground lug. Otherwise fits great!

    A C4???  Dude.....that's like the surströmming of the corvettes!

    Kidding....kinda.  ;)  Definitely a nicer corvette than I have.  Will you need to get some jorts and faded polos or do you have those?

    Will run to goodwill to get the corvette owners essentials.

    It didn’t say I’d take the snows off before we’re out of the woods. My name isn’t @Rekpoint

    Hey now, My E36 has been parked all winter on winter tires. I am still replacing the starter after 4 months. Hopefully that will be done this weekend. We will see.

    Jokes aside, the week before flying out to get my wagon was agony haha, I got absolutely nothing done. I'm assuming you're planning to road trip the new ride home? 

    My flight is scheduled for the 23rd. The plan is to strictly check out the car. Assuming all is well, pay cash and fly back home. Then get it on a transport truck later in the week to bring it up here.
