I decided to save this wall by making it the south end wall with two large bay doors.

In order for the door to look like they fit better I trimmed off the small side of each door.



I then sanded them flush.

I didn't like the double door look so I sucked it up and cut a new wall section.

I went with a single door instead.



I also cut a new lower end wall.

I centered six double windows and one single window on the rear wall. This wall will be next to the highway.

This is where the building will fit on real estate set aside for the junk/scrap yard.



This photo was taken with the large double bay doors.

Tom,


I like the single window in the center of the wall that breaks up the paired windows.  Nice touch.  And, I like the single door in the end wall better, sometimes a "save" isn't the best way to go.

Jerry,

I like the single bay door also. The "save" will be saved for another scratch build. I like the single widow in the center better than another double. The good news is that I didn't need to cut a new wall section to figure that one.

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.

I finally got all the windows cut in on the second floor. Now I can add some nail holes and bracing prior to painting.

Bottom floor -
