    let's see pics of your painted OSB interior

    Used Kilz Oil based primer. Nothing fancy, just plain white. Holding up very well so far! More pictures here in my thread - http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=159775&showall=1

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    The old floor furnace did work well, but the garage is kinda small and I'm not sure I want to give up the floor space. I'll have to keep this in mind though if I do decide to put one in and PM you for the info. Btw, my pictures are from the AMS track day last year. Do you guys put on that...

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    There is a gas line out there (removed old furnace that was in there). I'd like to get a ceiling mounted heater, but it just hasn't been very cold here in Chicago this winter. It still hasn't even snowed. The snow tires on the Subaru are going to waste:(

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    Added a new stable mate earlier this month. Traded an Escape Hybrid. Quite the upgrade:bounce: On a side note you can see part of my driveway with the asphalt gone. It seems like there is less than 1/4" on most of the driveway (really, it seems like the previous owner just dumped a ton...

    Thanks! I have not heard of 10/10ths before. I checked into their website and seems like they have some reasonable pricing though. Do you have experience with them?

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    no plans for the floor, honestly. It is really stained and cracked up. I don't think I want to take on the task of repairing it at the moment, and Racedeck is pretty low in the queue of things to spend money on unfortunately. I know it would really complete the project, but for now I must...

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    Thanks everyone! When I look at the before pictures it always blows my mind (I have tons of transformations like this of the inside of the house as well). Before pictures make me think about all the $, but walking out there now makes it worth it. 55cadillacking I actually ordered a rack...

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    All wiring completed today! This was a lot of fun but I'm glad it is over with. I need to order something for tire storage, look for some cheap kitchen base cabinets to go under the free laminate counter top my buddy gave me, and get the stereo hooked up. Started to decorate with left over...

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    I'll have to pick up one of those kits and see how it works, thanks! Well, I've been waiting for this for a while... the lighting! I ran most of the ceiling conduit a few days ago, and finished pulling the wire last night around 9:55pm right before HD and Menards close, only to realize I...

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    anyone have any recommendations how to seal up the bottom of the door at the corners? The concrete has settled, and there is maybe 1/2" gap at the right side and a little less at the left.

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    Door went in Thursday. What a difference! I wish I had more pictures of the awful track/spring setup inside to compare how nice it is now. Old, un-insulated, multicolored, weld repairs, zero weather stripping, mis aligned, death springs without safety cables, etc. New Cloplay 4300. 3...

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    I have a place but thank you for the offer. Progress seems slow, but the devilish details have been taking a while since I can really only seem to get anything done on the weekends. Paint is done, baseboards are mostly installed, electrical panel is hung and the service hooked up. It...

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    It's hard to imagine it ever looking so bad to begin with. I wish I would have taken more pictures of the before The orginial opener.... the springs were old, the track was misaligned, and the opener went through a few sets of gears before I replaced it and tried my best to rebalance the...

    2 Car Detached Remodel. The Subaru Deserves Better!

    Detached More progress this weekend. All walls sheeted now, the access hole was cut out and trimmed, and trimmed out the window. Most important, I rolled and cut the first coat of primer on the ceiling and walls. I'm using Kilz Orginial Oil Based Primer and it seems to work really well...
