Hey guys my first post...lil scared..just kidding. Anyways the garage is finally complete and my little girl (car that is) has just been put to bed for the winter. The gargae project started with intentions of nothing more than a fall cleaning that turned into a great little project. I will put out a great word for .wwwtheultimategarage.ca for coming through on an incredible price on the floor...really finished the room. These pics were as of last week, since that time the trim and garage floor has been completed, but the camera has become angry.
Certainly not the best by a mile..but my 22x12 foot paradise..

I purposely waited untill the car was finished before attempting to rework the garage. Idealy the tools can stay in the box for some time. Funny that the dog decided to play glamour shots in the first pic because I have two labs and neither likes being anywhere near my car...I like to take credit for teaching them that. :)

Not a chance..spent two yrs putting the damn car back together..motor/******/rear end/suspension/body/interior...all done. There will, I pray to God, be no more "serious" mechanical work done in that room..I'm TIRED OF TURNING WRENCHES...for a while :). Thanks so much guys for the kind words..nice to find a place like this with so much information available regarding something I enjoy. Here is a little picture of what I was working in before...you still can't see the true mess and dirt, but you get an idea of what was..

Great example of a nice garage. What are the dimensions? It looks like a single car. I have 2 10x22s at my new house, finding it harder to plan out than my current 2 car. One bay is for parking, the other for a project. I have a shed outside, and it's probably going to be for parts storage. I'll get everything in there, I'm sure.

Sweet ride and a really nice garage!

Are you going to bring the car to the International in Edmonton next year?
Thanks very much, as for Edmonton I'm not familiar with the event your talking about, even so with a lack of trailer for the car and considering the higher gearing and MPG so poor it's almost funny :3gears: , I don't think I will be attending.

nice shop.. and super nice dog.. i have a few of them myself...
Hey thanks about the dog (and the garage ;) ) I have two as well, the black "purebread" however SOMEHOW had his ears start to point up towards the sky at the age of 1..and they never came back down. This kind of lead me to believe there may be a SLIGHT chance him not being the true pure black lab he was made out to be.
Still a cute little troublemaker though.

good job. I like the simplicity of it, nice and clean.
I would take the lions gear off the wall though, having it up there can only bring bad bad things. :lol_hitti

Nice job on the shop. :thumbup:

What year is the Mustang? My wife had an '88 GT she bought new, & it was a blast to drive. Same color red, with a sun roof & a gray cloth interior.
