Eric's Garage Project

[euro_urs4]

Hi, everyone just thought id keep everyone posted with a garage project that I am working on. I just recently bought this home with my wife, and is my first 2 car garage. The garage has alot of potential in which I will get to work on asap, and im looking to make a workshop right next door to the garage in the basement (wife ok'ed it! ) I am a big gear head as most of you, with a 550hp 1994 audi s4 running on 24lbs for now (more boost to come), I'm big into motocross and streetbike racing. So my toy collection will get bigger and bigger as we go on like most of you.

Here are two pics of the garage in it's current state, and the house itself. I will keep everyone posted as we go, looking to do the floors walls, and ceiling first, with other accessories to follow!.

If you want to store your Audi somewhere "safe" while you turn your attention to the garage, I may just know of a place....

Looking forward to seeing more of you new project.

Plans for the garage first of are to do the floor, i'm thinking of doing epoxy-coat seems like the best option out there for now, (seen best results on the forums so far), unless someone else can recommend otherwise

But I want to finish the floor, finish and paint the ceiling, and the garage walls, garage will mainly be more of a storage place, my workshop in the basement will be for the bikes with tool boxes etc in there. I put in cabinets and vinyl floor for now (will get pics of this soon for you guys).

That's pretty much a simple idea of what i want to do for now, eventually a half car lift, and a motorcycle lift, also I'm working on a drain next to the garage door since its on a slight slope and water comes in slightly on big rain storms/snow.

I'm also going to install a garage exhaust fan to eliminate the fumes, as well as more lighting. The list will probably get bigger as we go

If you want to store your Audi somewhere "safe" while you turn your attention to the garage, I may just know of a place....

Looking forward to seeing more of you new project.

Painting the walls white would help reflect light,

Coming from another Audi guy, nice car!
Can't wait to see pictures of the progress. I'm getting ready to start a refurbish on a house we just purchased as well.

yes i had intentions of doing that, looking for two tone, white up top and lower half a darker color so it doesn't get dirty as quick
