Love the Pontiac signs! Need some of those for my garage.

 

 

Awesome sign!

 

A few pictures of my nest. 32 X 56 with scissor trusses, floor heat and small office/lounge area. We had the structure built and floor done. Then hubby and I finished the inside, insulating and adding panel liner. Took almost a year for us to complete it.

 

Kim - real nice!

 

Ladder=Bad

 

That's a lot of concrete! What kind of lifts are you using. Do you like them?

 

The main shop





Engine room/ supply





Body prep lean to.... Paint booth is outback

 

 

 

My "extra" garage

 

Great garages guys!

 

Pics of the booth. Nothing too fancy but it does the job

 

Ok, I'm highly jealous of your garage setup Kymmee....it's so beautiful...

 

Garage life:

 

Thank you! The garage was always a dream, but did come true! Some things happened to go the right way and made it possible! I am very grateful for that.

 

Mine gets to enjoy a view, instead.

 

Can you roll the dice for me so I get some things to go my way too? Lol

 

Nice view!

 

Anyone here with a pic of their car in a smaller garage? Moving to a house with a 16x21 and I'd love to see some pics for reference.

 

Can't believe I never stumbled across this thread, lol! Some really nice shops! Here's what my dad and I built for the trucks




Moving my parts in last week.





The suburban sprung a gas leak, dropping the tank.

 

I think my garage is the same size, this is a pic from last year.
Collecting parts and tools for 15 years.

Garage is packed, so last week I purchased some white shelving. Also fit
a metal shelf and a nice black stackable tool box. Today I bought a metal pegboard
made by Wall Control.com. The key is with a small garage use your wall space for storage.
When I`m done I will post some pics. Also painted walls and used grey epoxy to seal the
floor for easy wipe up. Its was a real mess using the floor for tools.They also make these
bigger for shaving and other stuff.

 

I'm not seeing the pic, man. And I really want to. lol

 

Almost forgot, gotta try to keep it third gen related

 

Working on my boosted 6.0 swap

 

I just bought a house with a garage, the garage is split down the middle (was basically an addition to an old garage from the 50s), I have a "motocross" side which is the old garage with my bike, compressor and all MX related tools/gear (and yard equipment), the car side is about 12-14' wide and 30'ish deep with a dog leg that goes behind the original garage, that has my welder, welding table, work bench, automotive tools etc... I have intended to take pics of it, but I'm currently in the middle of a duck boat project so things aren't in their regular places.
It does have a loft, which is AWESOME for extra parts, hunting equipment etc.

 

Sweet man. Is there enough room width wise to work on your car? I think our third gens are around 16-17' long so with the garage only being 21' I'm worried i won't have much room.

 

My old place only had a single stall and it was tight. Whenever I wanted to work on the car I would have to roll it into the driveway just so I could get the doors open lol!

 

That sucks.

Our Setup

 

Very nice !!

 

Nothing special here. My garage is only big enough for about 1.5 cars. But it is climate controlled!

 

I currently rent a 30x50 polebarn type shop for 425 a month and it includes electric and a 8x12 door and a side man door


pic of the outside with my $500 buick

 

Here is mine.

I have one I would sell...

 

 

J E T S!

 

Someday I’ll fix up this little, old garage... Would be cool to do something with the walls and floors like I see some of you did..

Really I’d like to knock it down and make a 4-car with a lift and a finished upstairs.. Dreams...

Happy to have a garage for now!

And then bedtime...

 

The last time I posted in this thread was in October of 2015 and I have since upgraded to a 24' x 30' detached garage on its own meter, is fully insulated, and has heat and air. Now I have no excuse not to work on the car because of the weather...


20' x 22' garage

24' x 30' garage

 

Not much for now still need to move all of my tools and we are set for future repairs

 

1986 Z28. Bought it new 33 years ago :-)

 

Just trying to make it work.

 

Heres the parking and small repair.

Where the major work happens

Shops a work in process. Payin out of pocket takes some time

Outside the main shop with the transport

 

WOW, all of these super nice setups. And now, it's time for some laughs! Here's mine:










At least they are out of the weather, right? We got the enclosed carport on gravel, the "shanty" that's seen better days on gravel and the tent on gravel! Just put up the tent last weekend. I tell you, the "tent" surprised me after surviving 50-60 gusts yesterday. It was a trooper. I do it have it secured quite well though.

Actually, I'm getting ready to tear down the poor wooden shanty this year as it is getting a bit too sketchy for me. It's served me well for about 10 years since I moved here and has been there since '59 with the house. I'm hoping to put up a steel 18x20 on concrete. My county sucks. My garage sq. footage cannot exceed the house and I have a small house. I'm told I can only put back the same size (12x30), So going to shoot for 18x20 which is the same sq. ft. and more useable as a 1-car and small shop. Of course, if I could ever find the right home and property in the next county over, this place is history!

Just recently, they've changed it so that even carports require a permit. I put my 12x21 up before that thankfully!

 

My little 1 car.

 

Real nice. Dang that plate goes back a few days...

 

TTT.

 

moved and the place we bought did not have a garage so we put one up. Need to put down some epoxy but it’s a nice blank canvas right now.
