    RAD Garage

    Re: Rick's Audi Double Hey Rick, Did someone "borrow" your pictures for their ebay ad? I was looking for garage signs/lettering and came across this one. The picture looked a little familiar. ;) http://www.ebay.com/itm/271902103489

    Re: My (New) Neighbors Probably Hate Me...But That's Okay - My “Dream” Garage Build Welcome to GJ. I'm a few miles west of you (Farmington Hills). Looks like you have quite the project going. You're starting over with the house too? I look forward to seeing the progress of the whole...

    Two way radios

    I bought a set of Motorolas from Costco a few years ago. 3 radios and a drop in charger that charges all 3 at once. We use them for road trips to the race track to talk truck-to-truck. Range is a mile or two. If we're out of that range we'll just use the phone. The battery pack is removable...

    ideas for under cabinet lighting in shop

    I used a similar kit to joe's link above. Menard's had 16' kits on sale for $20 so I bought 3 to use in my kitchen. They look great and went together easily though the sticky backing doesn't hold upside down all too well so I had to put a few wire staples in some places to keep the strip from...

    RaceDeck Install: Any padding under?`

    Some people use landscape fabric. I'm not sure how well that would work under FreeFlow tiles though.

    Is Jorgen actually Santa? (New RaceDeck Garage)

    Looking forward to seeing it installed. My plan is to do FreeFlow on one side and solid on the other, just as you've planned, so I'm interested to see what you think once it's all laid out. The wife parks inside during the winter so I like the FF but my fun car lives on the other side and I...

    Scooter's Corvette Garage

    Thanks Mike. I owned the '70 for over 20 years and by the end it had lots of VBP suspension parts along with a cammed LS1 and T56. Restomod is the best way to do a C3. They're so much more fun to drive with a few modern touches. I am thinking about LED tubes for the second set of lights...

    Scooter's Corvette Garage

    Wiring is "done". I had some time to work in the garage this weekend so I added a couple more outlets along the back wall for the fridge and moved the Invisible Fence control box over by the back door. I ran the wires for the second set of lights and put the switch for it at the workbench. Once...

    Scooter's Corvette Garage

    Definitely. That's the thing I miss most from the old house. I'm thinking something like a 50k BTU Modine/Mr Heater. BTW, I'm Matt and I used to have a black C4 too. (And a black C3.) I'm not sure I have any photos of the C4 handy (it was a '91 Z07) but here's the '70.

    Scooter's Corvette Garage

    We bought a new house with an unfinshed garage last summer. I had a (slightly smaller) 2-car in the old house but it had heat, water, built-in cabinets/workbench, and a nice insulated door by the time we sold the house. The new garage is slightly bigger (23x22) but only the side along the...

    dubber's double

    I installed one this weekend. Only took a few minutes to complete. No more worrying "Did I close the garage door???" when you've away from home. The app also has a time on the status so you know when the door was closed (or how long the kids have left it open).

    RaceDeck Install Complete

    That looks great. Would you mind posting a photo looking straight down at the FreeFlow tiles? Everyone takes photos looking outward so I've never seen what they look like looking down (how much of the floor underneath can be seen). Thanks.

    Insulating current garage door or replace with an insulated one?

    We bought a new house recently with a completely unfinished 2 car garage. I'm planning to insulate, sheetrock, and install a natural gas heater for the winter. It currently has an insulated metal door, which seems to get very hot in the summer as it faces west and has the sun on it all...
