New shop/garage

[JD6430]

My 100+ year old 18X10 wood floor garage, got pulled off to be put on a new slab up in the woods for storage.
Put it on skids made out of trees and draged it with the John Deere 135C.

Thanks for the pictures.

Any idea as to whether the siding is original? If so, it appears to be in pretty good shape to my eye.

Not sure what was original on the old garage, its been that way ever since I can remeber. No the pictures were taken from july on.

Used the excavator to stand all the steel beams up. All the steel was engineered and built by a Large steel company in NH.
