Show us your shop.
 
Let's see what your shop looks like. Show us where your projects are worked on. Mine looks like a three car garage but my truck just barely fits next to the pile of stuff that has been ejected from the house. Let's see some shop/garages that people can be proud of. Share any good ideas.

Show us what you got.

My first car was a 69 Dart GTS. Also a piece (because it was wrecked when I bought it), but very fast.

My shop is a 2 1/2 car garage that is much like a 68-69 Dodge, and so are most of my tools. I have a two car detatched which is not really worth mention.

My wife bought this for me so I wouldn't have to go 20 miles away to my old rented shop.

Here's my new home away from home. I'm just moving in. Still got a lot of work to do...

Looks kinda like a house but it's not...

And my carport

The only thing missing is a bunch of trucks. I figure I've got room for at least 6.:metal: I like to work late at night and I'm in heavy industrial zoning so I can make all the noise I want! :)

Hey JBGroby, I dig the "plaid" valve covers on your V6!

Here is my "home".

1st pic is the office area where I get to visit with y'all.

2nd pic is out in the driveway looking north at the shop.

The rest are angles in the main bay.

Later ---DAC

no good pictures of my shop,but i did have an idea when i was cutting my bed down.Im gonna try to find a junk bed with a good tail section,cut it down like the pic. below,and try to hang it from the wall.I think it would be cool to have a functioning tail gate,and use it like a bench seat(pad and cover the inside of the tailgate,and the wall,so when you let the tailgate down,it looks like the bench seat in the truck,if that makes sense).I also want to wire the taillights and side markers to light up from a seperate switch,and paint it to match my truck(when its done).Just not sure if,and how,i can make it work yet.

Well, since you asked...yesterday I became the official renter of my new "play ground"...

For the next couple months I'll be using the space to liquidate (CL Yard sale, of sorts) all the stuff I've accumulated
from my folks, my departed husband and his folks plus all the crap I just had to save for ... sometime.

Fear not...my collected truck goodies are staying.

Here's pics from yesterday and today...
Stuff from storage getting layed out on tables..
Best of all; got in the TV (Thanks to Livrat & Bro for the help unloading) and
Halloween is over...evil elves get stored.
