Here is my extra storage shed I brought home and parked at the bottom of my driveway. You can literally open the drivers side door and that's about it. I have so much stuff in there I don't know where to begin lol

I had a '63 Corvair Greenbrier van for about 6 years that I had planned on rebuilding.  Wife just hated that rig sitting along side the house.  Finally reallized that I would not be working on it, so I sold it VERY cheap.  Now my garage is back full of stuff since I lost my "shed".  It was awesome to keep bulky stuff like snow wheels ect out of my way.  Now I just put my snow wheels in the truck on my '65 Chevelle, which is also currently just sitting waiting it's turn on priority list.

Imagine putting a rear axle under an old bed with a tongue and a camper shell on it. An awesome COVERED trailer.

Awesome! And, if you need to move...find an old axle and BAM! Your shed is now a trailer.

(By the way, I liked your "BAM!". Life would be better if way more sentences had "BAM!" in them.)
