Your garage fits in nicely to our GJ "family" - just the right amount of "patina" (from use, it appears) to make it a working garage. The neighborhood looks very "American" in many ways and not what people generally imagine when they think about Russia. I'm sure you're finding lots of inspiration and ideas here on GJ. Your English is very good - at least good enough for this forum.
Is that your home next to the shop? The walls are very substantial which, I think, might help with the heating (hot eater radiator?). Is there an in-ground pit under that center section of the floor (where the wood is located)? If so, I hope it's well-ventilated.
We have very good friends in Moscow. Their families all live in apartments. It's a lot different from your neighborhood. Roman thinks we're a bit "crazy" with our collection of cars, but he did attend one of our car shows with his mother when she was here on a visit. She loved going for drives with me in my Lincoln Mark VIII.

This garage has been working for about 5 years. Generally, we improve our cars. Also we have little club of people holding the same views. It is called VW GOLF mk2.
At the beginning i rallied the small green car (it is parked along the fence in my backyard). Then I grew up and decided to make a car for its beauty and my soul.
I really try to improve my neighborhood, my backyard and my garage to "american" ones. The whole forum GJ gives me lots of inspiration for it.
This is my house near the garage. There is a tyre fitting in one of its parts (in smaller one). It's one of my ways of living. The walls are substantial because our winter usually lasts 8 months a year. the temperature is about -30 Celsius degrees with the wind. During this time the inside garage temperature is +15 Celsius degrees and radiators are hot. In the center on the floor (under the wood) is a pit and, unfortunately, it is not ventilated. But this year I'm going to change it.
I live in the countryside. It is more than 1900 km from Moscow. I would love to go for drive with you in your Lincoln Mark VIII too.
