Hello from Belgium

[Langemarck]

Hi Guys,
I stumbled across this site while getting ideas for my new garage.
What some of you guys have build I can only dream about. This must be by far the best garage oriented site on the web.

Space is very limited in our little country and regulations are very strict so I have to be very creative when it comes to space. On the other hand we have great beer .

I decided to go for a double garage with separate workplace and an open kitchen in a L shape at the end of the garden.

Work should start in in summer and I decided to go for a wooden frame building.
I will try to post pictures as the work start.

Hi from Belgium too,
I just bought this week-end a 42X62 feet warehouse near to Antwerp. It will be used to park my car collection into and to restore some cars. Where are you from?

Hi,
Thanks for the welcome
I'm from Limburg. I also need more space to store and work on my cars and to restore my '69 Harley.

I spent some time in Brussels, charleroi and nivelles. I have a soft spot for the Belge.

I thought In Bruges was pretty funny.

Welcome to the GJ.

 

[Langemarck]

Thanks again for the warm welcome.
As soon as work starts I will post some pictures.

@Jack, just seen your thread. Great, no, fantastic place.
Nice car as well. Here is a picture of my 911.

Hello from Estonia/Sweden.

Another with a soft spot for Belgium and the surrounding countries, Netherlands and France. Had a dutch girlfriend a million years ago and traveled quite a lot in those countries in my early 20s, even had a favourite cheap hotel with a bruijn kafee in Gent. Wonder if it's still there. There was a thread about an ultimate cool neglected car dealership in modernist style from the 1930s on this forum a while ago, I think it was in Gent, but not 100% sure, do search if you're interested.

Thanks. That's a nice-looking 964, Langemarck.

I briefly had one parked in my garage. I traded with a friend while he did my car's alignment at his shop. It's a pretty-faithful clone of that era's Euro RS.

Hello, I send you a pic of my Porsche 964 too.

Welcome to the Garage!

Well I finally found a contractor who is willing to do the foundation for my new "Carriage house". He made me a good offer which I accepted and the work should start the end of April, beginning of May.
I am planning to make a lot of pictures and as soon as the work begins. I will start a thread at the Garage Gallery forum.
