Big. I thought there was a spec of a car in one of the pics, but hard to make it out it was so far away.:) Nice playhouse.

Looks more like a museum than a garage.

Nice museum though.

Great space. I love the big signs hanging down. What's the red vehicle on the left side of the last pic?

Re: Cool site,,,here is mine

The red thing is a 1968 Roof Palamino riding lawnmower with a Kohler air cooled engine. They are very rare and were built in Pontiac, Ill.
It is hand made like a tank, I use it to cruise around the neighborhood since I do not have the 5' mower deck for it.

The picture on the wall is probably a 1988 FZR100 or a FJ1200 Yamaha, I have owned a few of them.

It is a rear wheel drive with a hydrostatic transmission.
No clutch and no gears.

Very nice place... With a floor that is spotless to boot! What brand of lift is that? I like the all black look.

It is a Direct lift brand. It was around $2,000. and works great.
The capacity is 8,000 LBS. You can mount it to the floor or just leave
it and it has casters so you can move it around.

Love the Honda 50's . . . they look mint and likely shocking what they are worth!

Also the cherry SS Camaro is catching .... are those peak-a-boo headlights?

Great Garage. I can only dream that when my Camaro is 40 years old, I'll still have it, AND it will be parked in a place half as nice! Thanks for sharing

You have one too many fuel pumps. I'll take it.
Great looking shop. Keep the pictures coming.

Yes, the camaro is an ss/rs.
The rs option has the concealed headlights.
The Gibson is a 1948 and cranks right up.
I have seven gas pumps and need more!
