Awesome! Looks to me like you race some Supermoto? Moto and Offroad racer here.

Why yes I do

Treasures tucked away for the night...

Some pics at night

I just joined ths forum, and love it! Here is a pic from March 2007, when I was restoring my 64 Stingray in my little one car garage. Click here to see what it looks like all finished. A garage is a place where you work until the late hours, installing a cam, or painting your hot rod...not a place to store folding chairs, boxes of tax returns and pink flamingos. A real garage has a nice big tool box, a hydraulic jack, and a box or two from your favorite mail order parts supplier.

Mine is far from done, but I figured I'd bump this thread and contribute. Cell phone pic, sorry guys!

 

[CyberWizard]

Man, I am lovin' this thread!!

I wish my so-called single car garage was up to snuff so that I could post without embarrassment. I can work in my garage, or I can put my '81 Parisienne in the garage, but it's an either/or sort of thing.

You guys have amazing spaces. Keep the photos coming!!

 

[Gunfighter]

Still a work in progress but I'm slowly getting there.

 

[egads74]

quick! Turn the inside light off... it's attracting BUGS!!!

Three different bug lovers - three different continents!!

Hey guys - amazing pictures so far!! Great thread idea!

Mine doesn't compare to most, but here's what I have right now...

Driveway under construction:

Getting there:

Keep 'em coming!

 

[Gunfighter]

Looks like you are well underway to me. Keep us posted on your progress.

 

[Gunfighter]

Thanks for the compliments. My hope is to have my garage look as good and function as well as the cars I park in it.

 

[6SpeedBowtie]

Here's mine.

Make that 4 bug lovers. This one also in the US. One day I'll (re)own a '67. Wish I'd never sold mine...that was, oh, about 40 years ago.

Gunfighter, Buzz Lightyear...what year are yours. I'm guessing 67 for Gunfighter (but I can't tell if the hood in the background has a squared off or rounded nose) and 62 for Buzz.

I really enjoy seeing what people are doing to their garages. I thought it was just me wanting to make a garage pretty...guess not.

 

[Gunfighter]

I'm in Baton Rouge BTD. Are you a member of Houston Air Coolers by any chance?
My car is a 65 by the way. Nice to see some vintage VW's along with all the Muscle posted here.

 

[Buzz Lightyear]

Mine's a US spec '57 oval

My garage is a bit of a bomb site at the moment as we're building an extension on the house - though not the garage


and it's full of Mk2 Golf at the moment

Gunfighter....Houston Air Coolers? Didn't know of them. I'll have to look them up. Baton Rouge huh. I learned to eat mud bugs at Ralph and Cacoos back in '89. Great town.

Buzz...Very nice vehicle. I should have recognized the turn signals. I was a VW mechanic back in the late '60's/early '70's and I seem to remember one customer's bug that had flip-out turn indicators in the door post...way cool.

Keep 'em running guys. These old bugs need to be preserved. They are truly milestones in the history of the automobile.

Now I have to go sweep out my garage!

 

[344chief]

..oh well... this is my garage last night:

not much to show now, but I can assure you that it's a high priority build.. but the evenings are too short

 

[intimadatorsquizz]

here's mine... but the guy that took them wasn't outside the garage.

 

[sarel.wagner]

VW nut... These are 2 out of 6 VW's..... 1963 Beetle still factory interior and engine, totally original and still 6 volt, 1974 Bay double cab bus and Land Rover Defender 1996. More pictures here

[JCQuick]

Did someone say VW

 

[aar0s]

garage is up at the wife's house, i got it in the marriage. one of these day's ill build one of those garages with fancy wall coverings but this will work for now.

wall art that i scored from a local drive through bank after it closed, not for the night but they changed locations and abandoned the site. i need to find some room for it somewhere.

 

[type550]

it is all in the lighting...

 

[Rickster55]

Right now my garage looks best at night......with the lights off!

 

[Chris05gto]

Here are some night shots!

 

[jayoldschool]

I recognize that Bib from my "big art" thread! Looks great in that setting.

Yay!! More Dubs. Nice big garage for them. WHat years are they?

it is all in the lighting...

It's not a dub but it's air-cooled and seriously gorgeous so I'll let you off. I read through your garage thread the other day and it's a fantastic use of a small(ish) space.

 

[Spottty]

I very rarely come here but I thought I would add this since it fits so well. The garage ***** right now but im trying to build the garage up and the truck at the same time so its slow going!

Ohh and the paint is not staying like that!

[Spottty]

[A29]

Here is mine

 

[Andy4639]

Here is a double picture of mine. The 07 Tahoe got totaled in July of 2010. The 08 is inside now.

 

[squeezezmetim]

its a bit of a work in progress, dad isn't the tidiest of workers......

 

[e-tek]

Yup - this really is a fun thread - good work by everyone!

 

[moopa]

Here's mine... ignore the runs in the Mustang!! Not too big in square footage,(28'X30' but 16' walls)...need mezzanine space ideas!

 

[ol55]
