Thats one of the grarges we have stuffed full of stuff. Under and behind the shelving on the right therers a wide range of unmolested dana 60's, about 75 motors under the shelf, and lots of other rare pieces including some brand new 1955 sheetmetal for a passenger car, NEW GM at that! And if you think this was messy, its about 10 times worse now. There are so many motors, blocks, heads, trannys, that you can barely walk through there. Anyone got a bigger pile-o-parts than me?

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

Oh, we dont do any working in any of our grarges other than small stuff in our workshop. We instead work on a big cement padio, my next order of business with the old man is to make a shop you can ACTUALLY work in. Sounds like a dream dont it?

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

Heres mine, a lil dirty from the last day of working.

Here's mine :(

It's a new style open air garage :crazy:

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

A smaller two car with a 11 foot ceiling makes for more room to hang stuff from the ceiling and I built a little loft area above the garage door on the right. Had to take pictures when it was cleaned up, it's not looking this good now.

Re: Let me see your garage!!

That blue thing in the back ground is my garage. It also doubles as a paint booth as long as the wind is blowing away from the house :-)

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

nice, reminds me of my Dad's shops in the past except,............. where are all the calandars, spent hours looking at them........

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

My garage is more of a place for my wife to put crap she doe'snt want in the house anymore , her car is in there and my bike ,most of my tools
HOWEVER.........see the poles on the ground around the stumps ?
thats where MY 28x40 ish shop is going up , soon I hope
still in the planning stages

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

My spot would be the one with the doors open , used to be a grain silo.
Sometimes she comes out to visit:lol:

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

uh,,whats a garage...never seen one at my house.. is it some kinda of elusive creature like a unicorn....:crazy:
anyway i would be happy to have anything, even a tarp over some poles..oh well in the near future i will have one,,and i know the garage im after is bigger than the house...:metal:

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

I had one of them built as well. Sigh ...

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

Here is mine, 28x32. I remember when I built it thinking how big it was, Now its packed and I still have to rent a spot for my 64 1/2 mustang. Once I get the red 72 done it should free up a lot of space.

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

Big D you can keep your Mustang over at my place, heck I'll even drive it around so the battery doesn't go dead :)

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

I have two hobbies, they compete for garage space.

Stages of my garage cleanliness.

These to pictures is from 2-3 years ago when I coated my garage floor.

This pic is from last summer before I brought my 71 GMC home from my father's house. I was making a 4th stall parking spot alongside my garage before the truck rebuild begins.
http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l1...n/IMG_1049.jpg

Here's how the garage appeared when I removed the engine and trans from the 71 GMC in the Fall of 2006.

Here's my storage spot for the truck
http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l1...IMG_1284-1.jpg


This is how the garage appears now - probably a 5 out of 10 for cleanliness. I have noticed that workbenches are used more for shelves than for actual workbenches.

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

Here are some pictures of the shop. Needs a garage sale big time .... I'll trip one time too often and then I'll get on the top of the sale. It has 220, heated slab floor, separate room for bead blasting, cleaning and painting parts. Will park 5 cars if I ever get rid of the stuff I don't use. In total about 1200 sq. feet.

esll. :)

Plan for the future is to store 3 cars and have a home entertainment theatre on the side that u see my truck on. So you rotate the cars/trucks they are the cheap seats to the drive in .... already wired ....

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

And the bigger it is the more stuff you'll put in it :crazy:

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

OK I'll play. It's just a 2 car attached garage, but it's where the magic happens :lol:

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

hey east side I like the burnout marks on the garage floor its kind of strange they are exactly the same distance apart as the tires on your truck:metal: :lol:

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

Was this thread just started to piss me off? No garage here and thats part of the prob gettinf anything done.

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

I have the open air garage, but my dad just got his dream garage.

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

Mine was pretty much worthless. It was two seperate stalls with a wall in the center. I tore the wall out & put in a beam. Its a lot better now but I still havent found the floor. Will work on that...

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

yea open air for me...seeing im currently moved back in my parents place but someday.....mabey when i move back home to south carolina..i miss it something awful..city life sucks

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

67 I love the Farmall. :)

Re: Let me see your garage!!
 

Sure here is my mess! It is a 25x45 poured in place building that was built about 1915. It used to be the cagaige house for our town. In 1928 they added an inground pit for working on Model A's. It has (2) 10x10 doors on the front and one in back behind the front right door so the horses could pull straite in and walk out the back and go the the black smith shop on the corner (now its a bar). I have it split up for a parts storage area, a work area and a vehical starage area but still do not have enought room at all. I have all the metal for a second story but now down time to build it right now. I also have a 12x20 two story parts storage building (old out house). The drivway in front of the shop is 30x45 and the front driveway is 12x65 and still I have vehicals sitting in the dirt waiting their turn for shop time.
No matter how big your shop or garage is you will never have enough room but you will get better about packing it all in their;)
