Congrats - looks good. A couple of questions: 1) are doing any HVAC? Seems like a perfect spot for a mini split 2) what about the former windows that used to be exterior and now look into the garage? Did you fill those in it keep them? I'd love to have a window into the garage (from the...

With the weather turning cold here, the garage has taken a different look, as most of the toys will not make it out on the salty Chicago roads. However, I did get my Golden up and running. Played a quick round at lunch -I'm a bit rusty, played like Tiger.

The poker table has been great... hosted several fun games that have lasted pretty late without disturbing anyone. I got one more fun car this fall - a 1949 Willy's Jeepster - my little guy loves to go around the neighborhood. Unfortunately, today I put it away for the season. I'm also...

I have made a little bit of progress.... I bought a compressor and wall mounted hose. My primary use will be tires, grease gun and occasional impact wrench, so I went small/affordable. I was pleasantly surprised when the hose reel rang up for $34.99 as a sale price. I think it was...

Nice setup Jimbo.

A new (to me) resident for the Mog Cabin.... Porsche 944 Turbo (aka 951). Overall, making some slow progress on finishing a few details of the garage (trim, paint....). With limited time, I find myself spending more time on the cars and less time on the final details. Cheers.

I have had an engineer come out and look at my set up and it passed with flying colors (much to the disappointment of one of my neighbors). First of all, with a 10 foot height we can't stack 2 very big cars. Past "residents" up top included a Lotus Elise, Beck Spyder and Mercedes 190...

I finally bought a couch for the office. The back can recline or fold flat in case I ever need to a cat nap. Thinking of adding a second lift...

Congrats on a great space! I could have used a few of those crowfoot sockets last weekend when I was working on my truck - I have some shopping to do.

A few more updates... I painted the bathroom. Added a red and black stripe down the 50' long wall, hung some flags, added a paper towl holder in the shop area and then added some metal lettering to the warehouse side of the office wall. I have a couple more flags to hang - my little guy...

I use Go Jaks (granted my floor is epoxied - not free flow) and think with a light car you should be fine. I on a smooth floor I can move a very heavy car one handed.... on a rough floor (old floor was pretty rough...) I can move a light car one handed or a heavy car two handed.

Things have been a bit slow over the winter..... was hoping to get more done, but this is my busiest time at work. The couple small things I did included: Adding an overhead opener. Went with the liftmaster side mount. Now my wife wants for our garage at home since this thing is wisper...

Yep - hard top was included, as were 2nd set of rims with winter tires.... At somepoint I want to put joists above the office so I can store hardtops (Have one for the T-Bird too).

So, I got most of the stickers up - brings back great memories. Dubber - a close up of the SHO just for you! I also mounted the upper New Age cabinets above the bench. and for black friday..... I bought a Black Porsche 911 (996) C4 Cabriolet. The 996 variety does not command much respect...

I have them for each new car I have bought, except my first new car, and one other car (2003 viper) that the buyer demanded it. My very first car (Pontiac sunbird) was a hand me down from grandma, then my second car was a new '92 Saturn - which I don't have the sticker for. So my collection...

Right now the "roof" is strictly drop ceiling. However, i plan to add some I-beams for loft storage, will be great for hardtop storage. The HVAC is ganging right above the office. If that conks out then I'll build a full 2nd story and convert to mini split.

Nice score on the table.... I like the condo concept, you won't regret it (unless the build one 5 minutes from your house :). ) I have a car condo about 10 minutes from my house, but no community club house (it us actually an industrial condo.... Several of my neighbors run havc or...

Thanks ---- the color of the frame for the window sticker = the exterior color of the car. A bit quirky.... But works for me. I need to work on my picture hanging so I get them level (not that easy.... Since each frame us different size, with hooks at different heights)

The progress has slowed.... but I have gotten a few things done. Got the TV hung, cut the counter for the beer fridge, got glass for a coffee table and end table. Regarding the coffee table, I'm going to build a base on casters (using the moving dolly just to test the height). I also plan...
