6. Install checkered border.
7. Set up new workbench with tools neatly displayed from pegboard.
8. Workbench equipped with small refrigerator and stereo.
9. Take down hanging fluorescent lights and replace with ceiling mounted fluorescents.

I like your door ding protective device...from the height of the foam, the other vehicle must be a big SUV...

If the above is where your starting from I jealous. I just got done with spackling the holes and hope to start painting this weekend. I have a long way to go.

 

[GTJeff]

OK, What do you think...

All that in 1 week? Looks great.... BTW, where did you get the checker stripe? Is that self stick?

 

[GTJeff]

Over a month...

Border is like wallpaper, soak in water and apply. Got it at Rolling-Borders.com

 

[V-10 Killer]

I really like it. Great progress for a week. I've seen a few walls with that border but with gray paint on the lower half. That looks tons better.
Very nice work.

OK, What do you think...

Looks good!! Nice mustang and I like the powered by ford emblems. Did you get them off ebay?

 

[GTJeff]

I was lucky to get them before the sellout, from BuyFordRacing.com at $50. Now they are on ebay for ridiculous prices ...

I love look of your garage, too bad mine will always have too much clutter.

Can I also ask you what is the height and size on that window? I would love to add a window like that.. last I checked they cost $200-$400 though.


On the foundation, if you havn't already, I would put some kind of paint or sealer so they will not release dust.

I Really like it. I also like all the "Art" that you had on the walls before as well !!

 

[89vert]

Nice and clean set up !

Your Stang looks super clean as well .

Good job !

 

[GTJeff]

Can I also ask you what is the height and size on that window?

18" Window, 7' from the ground to center of window.

Thanks, I tried to spread it out... I thought that wall was getting too busy...

 

[GunMoto]

Looks great Jeff!!

Question: Did you need to use a special paint for the concrete rise on the lower portion of your garage walls?

BTW, nice ride!

 

[GTJeff]

Yes, I used Behr #875 Masonry Paint.

 

[GTJeff]

Just picked up some more Garage Art...

 

[GTJeff]

Got to have a clean motor, with a clean garage ...

Where's the Mustang model generation framed art from the before pic?

 

[GTJeff]

On the other side, waiting for when I get a 1969 Mach 1,
to park next to the 05 ...
