Crazy. I was going through my bookmarks last week and had your thread saved and hoped for an update. Nice surprise! Garage and the cars look great! Super jelly

That euro E24 is deadly. Nice garage too!

Brave guy owning a V12 ;). They're pretty hassle free engines aside from potential EML issues. Looks great on the M Parallels. :3gears:

Nice E31, is it an 840 or 850?

Wow , nice garage with loads of potential. Oh yeah, nice taste in cars as well. :beer:

Bump for an update? This garage is one of my fav's and I'd love to see some progress.

Interested in these special tools? What were they for/what kind of applications? BMWpower, do you have a GT1? It makes life so much easier when dealing with anything modern, and many of the "knock off's'" coming out of Asia have a much easier price tag to swallow than the $25k for a genuine...

Thanks for the kind words guys! I'm totally in love with this box. It was the demo box off the Snap On truck, but if has one small dent, and a small paint chip that would only really be noticeable if you knew to look for it. I think normal retail for the box and top on the Snap On website...

I got my first Snap On tool box today! It's a KRL722 in Royal Blue with a stainless top. I work at an independent BMW repair shop, and I had quickly outgrown my Mastercraft box in a year and a half. I got a good price on this one since it was the demo box off the Snap On guys truck, and it came...

Is the blue floor jack one of those "Furious Jack's" sold at Napa? We have one at the shop where I work, and it's one of my favorite Jack's to use!

Glad to hear that. A functioning pit is so cool and so uncommon to find in a garage, and it's cool that you actually used it for its intended purpose. If you're still thinking of doing something else with it like put a compressor in it or what not, wait until most of your garage reno is done...

Niiiice. Can't wait for more updates. You're garage is such an inspiration!

Z3 M coupe is the only BMW I'd consider a keeper in my collection if I had to get rid of my 2002. I work at an independent BMW repair shop and we just finished putting a new S52 in to a Z3 M Roadster that managed to hydro lock its original engine.

This is totally my favorite garage on the forum. It looks super cozy and very quaint, but looks like it's turning in to a very efficient work space as well. Look forward to seeing more progress, and some projects you'll be doing in there.

I had an older 3/8 and 1/2 drive (prob 15 years old?) given to me that was busted and they didn't have any replacement gear sets for them, so Sear's Canada sent two new ratchets to my local store. That's probably why I'm asking this question. My old BMW is a '76 and I love it dearly for...
