Thanks for the inspiration pic. I am definitely now thinking of going towards a cowl induction scoop for my Prostreet Coronet.

Way cool garage Cold85! I also like your taste in Mopars!!!!!
You need to look back at the pics because the 6th pic has a red tool box in it and many of the drawers of the cabinet has tools in it.
I have not looked at this thread in a while so thanks for the positive comments. After being in the garage over a year. it looks different because I have more junk. the only thing I would change is the type of floor epoxy I think I oput the quickcrete brando on it. It has not held up good at all. And I could always use more room. Here are some updated pics. Thanks.
Can only stay new and clean once glad I have the before the bomb went off pics

Excellent work. How did you finish the upstairs ?
I did not it is just storage space. Glad I did not finish because I needed it as storage.
Also the floor was not the qickcrete. It was another brand and only one part so not a true epoxy.

How tall is that ceiling on the first floor? 9 feet? And, do you have a full 8 feet of headroom on the second floor? Looks like it or pretty close. Nice looking set up you have!

Very nice....I think the updated ("post-bomb") pictures just make it look that much more appealing. That and it should settle the question of whether it is a working garage.....
Nice work--you should be proud. Keep us updated, it looks like the current project is always changing for you.

Man that sure is nice! Tons of space and still has a classic look to it from the outside.
Question - is the charger still on stock suspension and brakes?

Ceiling is pretty low upstairs I think about 6'9 I could have gone taller but I would lose floor space and I never intend on finishing it.

They look good but I think a Six Pack or Air Grabber scoop might look even better. LOL

I love how it looks small outside, but when you step in - - it opens up nicely!
Great build - I love those old muscle cars too....badass!

I really like that it appears as a showplace but is a working shop.

Beautiful Garage and cars. Love the Mopars and I'm a little biased towards the Buick 
When I saw your user name the first thing I thought of was an 85 GN with an intercooler. Looking at your pics I think I can see some front mount piping. Did you do a full conversion to an LC2 + front mount or just throw a front mount on the 85 engine? Great choice of wheels too!
Again, great rides and great garage.

Sorry but the Buick is now gone. I traded it even for the mustang and I am not a mustang guy so that means I got a great deal. The car in that pic is a 87 GN but my screen name came from my first gn that was an 85 that I put a 87 drivetrain in.
Very Nice!
Dart. thanks
I had the camaro & dart at a chasis shop getting work done and the mustang is at a buddy's house so it was a perfect time to redo the floors. the first floor coating was called epoxy but it was only one partt you did not have to mix it. And after a over a year use the floor was in bad shape. Anything I spilled on the floor stained it and it was hard to keep clean. So I bought the quickrete brand two part epoxy and re painted the floor. I hope that this holds up better than the last.

Nice cars and shop. Now what on gods green earth would posess you to trade an 87 GN for a mustang? I must see this 'stang. Is it made of platinum, gold or is it a flyin' car of some sort we've been promised in Pop Mechinics for decades now? Oh yea, Good Luck with the floor.

No offence Itzkwik, now that I see it I'm even more befuddled.
I can sell the mustang for double the amount the GN is worth or more. The GN ran the 1/8 @ 7.50 85mph and the mustang ran it @ 4.88 150mph. The guy wanted to trade even so I took him up on it.

Hey cold85, I'm sure the racecar is quicker but I was thinking of the collectible nature of the GN. Very nice collection of your own though.

Good trade. Nothing againsteither car, but if you can come out ahead, always a good idea. Looks like you keep rotating pretty well anyway.
I do still like that Charger, though.
That mustang looks familiar. Was it on racingjunk for sale. And by the way, yes you would have been a fool if you didn't do that trade. I use to be brand loyal but now as long as it makes me about mess my pants and a handful to dry, I don't care what badge it wears. Almost crossbread my mustang w/ a BBC but ran up on a deal on a BBF i couldn't turn down.
Had it on there a while back but decided to make some upgrades to get more out of it before I sell it.
How high is the ceiling on the 1st floor? I think one day I may want a 1973 vette & a 4 post lift like yours. Also, how thick is the floor? I here with a 4 post you can get away with 4". BTW, you have the hottest Mopars i've ever seen! WOW!!!!!
