This entire story is on a really long thread on the Garage Journal, and it's one of the coolest finds ever. Car Craft's Jeff Smith has just published in in the May 2011 issue, and it's worth a look if you see the magazine.
http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/03/this-car-guys-dream-maybe-yours-too.html is the link to my post a year ago, and for the thread on the Garage Journal where Thomas adds new photos of things he's doing and restoring that were left in the garage, like floor jacks, the hydaulic car hoist (Rotary lift company), Sun distributor tester, etc, http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=51567
Car Craft Magazine has a 6 page feature about Thomas Payne's 1930's service station (I posted about it a year ago, amazed at the treasure he found)
