    Your Shop, Garage or Workshop

    Shop show 'n tell.

    This is before my floor epoxy. I'm still waiting on a stretch of time to get the floor done. You need quite a few days by the looks of it.

    I'm going to get a used flat screen tv for the wall, probably a smaller one. It'll be great for music, games and straight up background noise while I'm working.

    Once the floor epoxy is done, there is going to be a cheap knock-off persian rug in the larger area to the back and my guitars and amps are going to make their way down there as well. yeah, it's gonna rock!

    I also collect old tin signs, vintage and current posters and stuff like that. Would love to restore a antique fuel pump for it. I also haven't built a work bench yet. Our tech at the studio is replacing his and he's promised me the old one, which is nice, wide and laminated.

    There is more than enough room for 2 cars, so I'll have plenty of room for my next project, a Triumph TR6! ...... I just might have to restore a Miata for the wife first.

    Good new thread.

    As a Northern transplant to the South, I can tell you that not having a basement down here in SoFL, is a big loss, and that results in the consumption of garage space, into storage space.

    As the kids are growing up and moving out, we don't need a house as big as we've had. So...the next house that we shop for, will have garage space requirements near the top of the "things to look for".

    I have nothing to contribute in pictures to this thread, other than our DeLorean in a 2 car garage, by itself, surrounded by some tools and mostly storage stuff. I do look forward to more pictures from others, for future inspiration.

    Is that little leather couch there to sit and ponder things when you're pissed off at your car ? I like it....

    I don't have any decent shots of the entire garage but here's one from a couple of years ago during my Mustang's major surgery.



    It is just a 2 port metal carport with a hurricane shelter cinder block construct at one end. The other end is capped by an ugly green "fence".
