Nice work! We have an orange wall in my office in almost that exact shade, I've always loved it. Did you use a plan for your bench or just wing it? I need to make something similar.

Great progress! Reminds me a lot of my garage.

Thanks! Ya, the green wheels always get funny looks on the way to and from the track.

New LiftMasters are in! Also put a dry erase board up. I've always wanted one in the garage. Useful for taking notes, writing torque specs and so on.

28 Apr 2012 Work has continued over the past few weeks and the one car stall is coming along nicely. Before: Today: The side walls had a lot of damage and holes, so everything was patched and primed. Side walls got two coats of a semi-gloss white and the back wall a color called...

12 Apr 2012 Not a lot to update yet, but I have started the process of painting the one car stall. This was the wall that the PO had some wood storage built in. In general, all the walls in this space were dirty and/or full of holes. I patched and sanded everything so that it will at least...

I've used wood ramps for a while now. Not too bad, but they are heavy.

28 Feb 2012 A few more from today... The two car finally cleaned and organized a bit. It's nice to see it as a completely blank canvas. And two shots I grabbed to prove to my Dad that the Bronco would fit in the one car stall.

26 Feb 2012 This weekend was the first time I've had a chance to get any real work done in the garage. It's really dirty with lots of cob webs and dust. Messy garage and one very dirty M3. Various piles of stuff everywhere I decided to focus on the smaller garage for the day. Here's...

Greetings all! The wife and I have been in the new house nearly a month now, so I figured it was time to start this thread. I'll be using it as a way to keep organized and share progress. We closed on the home on Feb 3rd and most of our time since then has been spent taking care of the move...

Awesome! No racing for me (yet), I'm just a HPDE guy. I run most of my events with TrackDaze (trackdaze.com) and occasionally make it out with NASA mid-atlantic. Not sure what my schedule will look like this year. My guess is that some of the track budget will become house budget.

Quick update: inspection issues have been resolved and were at 7 days till closing :bounce:

One of my favorite shops on the board. LOVE the snow pic :thumbup:

Quick good new update: It looks so far like the sellers are going to repair all the issues we outlined after the inspection. :thumbup:

Thanks for the welcome all! The inspection went fairly well yesterday, although we did find a few issues that will need addressed. Not too surprising for a 40 year old house. In any case, here is a bit more about the garage and some pictures. The main 2-car is 22.5x24 and the 1-car is 21x11...
