Well this is my first time to post here but, I've been reading alot of threads for the last couple of months "very good info guys". :bowdown:

I have been working all summer on my new shop 26x34 11 ft. 2x6 walls and radiant floor heat. I still have to epoxy the floor and pour a drive way to connect to my other drive way but, since winter is here it will have to wait till spring.

Here is a couple pics!

Very clean work. Now how about some race stripes???

When the shop looks better than most people's home, you're a junkie.

PS: Why no windows? meth lab? **** studio? original Shelby Cobra?

................I just didn't feel like having any windows in my shop.

I understand. I put two small windows up high so I could be nosy and look outside during the winter. I also put color matching curtains to help keep the heat in. From the outside you would need to stand on something to see inside...and then only if I left the curtains open. Better that the neighborhood kids don't know what is inside the garage.

Welcome aboard OBH. Nice shop, and nice cars! You should have a very reasonable heating bill this winter.

The first car is a 70 R/T challenger .....with a 71 stripe and a 340 4- speed. It came with a 383 but, that motor is long gone.

The other car is a pro street 71 challenger "work in progress".
It's almost ready for the paint shop.

How many loops in the heat system? Is it all on one zone? What did you use for insulation under the concrete?
