Update! The cabinetry is in and the garage is coming back together. Here are some shots of the cabinets. Click for larger images. This one shows the new toolbox under a small counter area. And finally, the new toolbox is coming together. Here's my socket drawer: More pics to come...

Thanks for the kudos, everyone. Dubber, your work thread was the first I read when I got here. Nice job to you as well!

More updates. The drywall, paint, finish electrical, plumbing and new garage door opener and rails was done this week. Here are some pics. My car in one half. Paint done, new garage door rails. New garage door opener. This was a pretty custom job. The drywall was done in a way that allowed...

Excellent garage! I'll be watching this thread for more updates and pics.

Thanks! Yes, the red sidecar is for a scooter. The posted picture was taken in the garage of the guy I bought it from. That is his sidecar and other scooters in the background. My first project is halfway done... at the painters right now, so I figured it would be a good time to finish the...

You have a great garage! Love the vibe, and it looks like you're prepared to restore anything.

Thanks for the info everyone. Yes, I've looked at the Kennedy smaller versions and they're nice. I went to my local Harbor Freight and looked at the US General. Not bad, and I like the idea of selling the top box on Craigslist. I'm still looking. My budget is $1000, but that's got to be the...

Thanks for the replies so far. I clarified my post, as I could go with shallower drawers and still be okay. 15-18" deep would be fine. I do like the Viper boxes, but they do have a lot of bad reviews too. SuperSport and cburnscrx: What is 'HF'? Is that the brand or is that an abbreviation...

Hello, I've been lurking on this site for a while, ever since my wife gave me the go-ahead to redo the garage. I love this site! I've gotten great ideas, and once the project starts, I'll start up a new thread to document the progress. I'm still in the planning phase. I need a new tool chest...
