    So, still no progress on the frames - though one of the neighbours said they saw a chippy doing some preliminary work on the block today - so we could be in luck to get some work done in the new week :) Here's a couple of pics of the frames waiting to be built.

    No major changes as yet. Wood and bricks still waiting for the chippy's and brickies to turn them into a house. I've copied my post from this thread: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=94370 as I have mentioned how I am planning to make this garage look: For my own garage, I'm...

    Professional Race Teams

    For my own garage, I'm planning to do a slightly modified version of the Red Bull F1 team workshop Clearly it'll be a smaller version, but the benches, floor colour and even the setup markings on the floor would be fairly inexpensive to do. I would also like to mark my 'Vortex Motorsports'...

    Frames didn't start prior to the weekend, so no updated photos as yet :) The weather this week is forecast to be pretty good, so we should have a frame late this week with any luck :)

    Some great stuff there, but not quite what I was looking for :) I have my external drive out of storage now (was packed for a recent house move) so I'll post up a heap of the images of professional outfits I have tonight.

    Professional Race Teams

    No, it was most helpful! :) That's pretty much the theme I'm looking for, obviously mine will be on a smaller scale being a double garage. But, I think the colours and some of the layout ideas etc will fit well.

    Vortex Motorsports, Australian 6.2m x 7.9m (20ft x 26ft) Attached Garage

    Thanks guys :) I'll try to keep this updated during the build and after when the garage goes 'into production' :) We have had the excess dirt removed, and it was damn near 200 tonnes as I thought it might be.. No other progress as yet, though :(
