    The Wretched Mess Garage

    Another project I had put off way to long was to close up the stairwell wall into the loft. I loose a lot of heat to the loft through that monster opening. But, not any more! A drop down curtain or a light weight door of some kind will finish it off. The first pic is the inside of the stairwell...

    Finally found some time to get back to the garage. I have made progress on the metal tune up parts cabinets. The outsides of 2 of them are finished, and new locks installed. The insides will get painted white so I can better see what **** I've shoved in them.

    Turning gorilla racks into cabinets

    Build your own doors. You can get as creative as you want. Add some shelves to the backsides of the doors for rattle cans. Or, some hooks for extension cords and hoses. Maybe a fold down shelf to put your laptop on. Get as crazy as you want. If you can dream it you can build it.{If you can...

    All this work and she says "it's only a garage!"

    Re: All this work and she say's "it's only a garage!" I ate Tacos and tobasco sauce last night. I found out I had chapped lips the hard way. Does that count? At least if she's not that enthused about your garage, maybe she will stay out of it and not take it over as a storage unit.:thumbup:

    Since the world tour involved fishing and the catch was bigger than post #21, some slack can be given for not posting as often as us selfish guys want. LOL.

    The Wretched Mess Garage

    I did some more work on my dailey driver. I got the door panels in and the windows adjusted to fit properly. So, I moved on to the sun visors. The seams were splitting along the edges and I re-sewed them by hand with 5lb. test monofilament fishing line and a curved needle.(Sorry, no pics of...

    2 Sluggo's Garage

    I agree about Sir Jackie Stewart. Back when ABC still did "The wide World of Sports", I remember watching him run first place, from start to finish, the Monaco Gran Prix. Don't recall the year, just remembering he became my formula one hero from that point on. I also noticed your tag line...

    Good progress on the house and garage. After the grandbaby gets here you'll ask yourself,"Why didn't we have the grandkids first?" Then the house gets put on hold {"I'm holding the baby"} The dishes don't get washed {"The baby fell asleep while I was holding him/her"} The lawn mower falls...

    My "kids" are fraternal twins and 31 now. As I started turning gray on the sides I told them one side was "his" and the other was "hers". Now that we have the our granddaughter{The"Shop-Boss"} she gets the middle! I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it!

    The Wretched Mess Garage

    Nice to hear from ya again Terrick! No. I took the back seat out. The upholstery skins were so old and brittle,my dogs feet were popping the seams and their toe-nails were poking holes. So I made the platform to take them to the dog park with. It also keeps my buddies from jumping in at car...

    I also ordered a headliner kit from the same company. It comes with enough extra material to do the sail panels in the back as well. I am going to have a friend help me with that part. He has done trim work from scratch on a bunch of cars and is willing to help out. I did get new boards cut for...
