Hello from the Northern suburbs of Chicago- My name is Scott and I'm a recovering car-a-holic. ...Well not really, I'm still an addict. Joined up last week and have been browsing around so I figured I'd post. Many cool ideas and some awesome garages here. Lots to read here so when I lose focus at work I start running garage ideas through my head and have been coming here for a fix.

In a nut shell; got married at the end of last year, bought a new house and just moved in May 31st. (Managed to stay a bachelor until 51- don't know how but I did it.) ....Anyway, new place has a nice, big, detached garage for my car/gear head/collector addiction and can't wait to make it custom and cool. Now that some house needs are checked off the list it's get busy time on the garage. Only one problem....there's still **** piled everywhere! :willy_nil ...and there's more **** to come. :rolleyes2

Some pics to get the ball rolling....

There is plenty of potential here I'm just lost in the pile :lol:

Cool thanks for the welcomes. Ah, a new place for daily distraction.... :bounce:

Ya pretty much. I laid claim to an office and am doing my best to hold ground in the rec room, but she's already staked her claim on the rest. She does have good taste though so I can't complain. She's been spending way more than me on silly things like pillows and vases and girly fru-fru flowery paintings for the house, so hopefully if I let her roll a little there will be more leverage with the oversite/accounting committee when I blow cash on more important garage stuff. :p
