The "Helix Is Moving!" thread

As a lot of folks already know, we've been working on our new location in the Manayunk part of Philadelphia (just west of center city). A much better location ESPECIALLY food wise (no more six finger deli! lol). We're making progress but theres still so much work to do, we're currently finishing up the mezzanine and also staying busy with orders and installs at the current shop.

Anyways I snapped some pictures today and wanted to share our progress with you folks. We'll keep this thread updated with our progress...

The new store front



Eric doing a plug for cravenspeed


Where our front counter will be, along with
a display of our products. In the next room is where our customer lounge will be (we'll keep it a surprise for now)



Bathrooms done!


The shop area



We're almost done the mezzanine




In front will be our work area as well as a dyno room




back to work!

Looking good!
Best of luck to you guys and the move/renovations.
I think you guys should higher six finders and add a small sandwich shop to helix.......Just kidding...
It's been a while, I'll have to head down soon once you guys are settled in!

We're moving along! Here's a recent shot or two




The dyno room in the making. You get a helix goody if you can guess the two cars covered up
