There is one small update somewhat related to the garage. One of the main reasons I did all this work. About 2 months ago I picked up that vintage mustang. 1969 Mach 1, 351w.

Thanks Herb!

No I haven't. And it's getting worse. Just keeps chipping away.

Elk Grove Village?

Everything was painted with the same paint. Behr interior satin enamel.

The pics posted where pretty much finished pics. Not much at all has changed. Just a little more messy now, haha.

I decided to just leave them open to keep the already small distance between the top of the shelf and ceiling as large as possible. I didnt want any extra framing on the shelf or ceiling for sliding door tracks that would close up opening.

I wasn't getting email notification of replies. The floor is pitched down and out of the garage. So the ceiling is between 8'-8" and 8'-10". I put the top of the shelves just about a 1/4" above the top of the garage door rails. The rails happened not to be the exact same distance from the...

Thanks! Even thought I said I was done I do still want to add some type of baseboard. I am thinking just a black vinyl wall base as it is inexpensive and will not absorb water. As far as the floor I am undecided on finishing it. The main reason is I have some concrete issues to address 1st...

I just finished remodeling my 10'x19' garage and thought I would share some pictures. My intentions were to make the best use of my limited space in hopes to create a working garage that I could possible use one day to restore a vintage Mustang. I gave much thought into space savings and tool...

Is it 1/4" thick? This is the only product I seen in Home Depot and on their website. http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-202189722/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053
