Re: Let me see your garage!!

Here's my 40x60 shop with 14' sides - I'm very fortunate this was already in existence when we bought our home as my wife would have never gone for me building something like this!!

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!!

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!!

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

Re: Let me see your garage!!

I have a little building for the K10.



And the bike and pool table.



And my Cub and little compressor and a press if I get motivated enough to work on anything.





Backup supply of oil.



Dry spot for the Z and the C10 (which still hasn't been washed from the Maggie Valley trip).



Dry spot for the little Jeep.



The other Z is a little more exposed.

Re: Let me see your garage!!

i work in one of those open air garages also, we have a 2car garage that the race car sits in right now and have a carport off the garage, the sheets and tarps infront of my truck is the front of our "paint booth" so we can paint the trailer in the carport, during the season the racecar is in the carport and the garage is semi open

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?

I believe there is only 10 cars in that garage that I'd own
