This is not my garage but I was so impressed with it I named the photos "Best 1 Car Garage". Obviously, it's got that slight leg in addition to the main single stall, but I think it is incredibly well organized and yet attractive.

Best of luck. Post your "Before" pix; couldn't be any worse than some we've seen.

Yeah, you (and I) don't have a custom built brick garage or a Cobra for that matter but it's still an impressive space.

Hope this helps, Dan

P.S. If anyone remembers whose garage this is, please give him credit.

Here's one I have bookmarked and enjoy reading through.. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4069

Tho I don't remember the garage above being in there so I am not against another one car garage thread. :)

Ahhhh...Nimrod's Garage. My absolute favorite garage of all here on GJ. I love the surgical suites and the giant pole barns and all, but if I were just having something REAL capable and yet oozing funky coolness, it would be Nimrod's in my eventual retirement home, no question.

Nice!

Where'd you find the Velociraptor that' guarding your stuff:bounce:

Now THAT'S a dog. I'm guessing that as big as he looks he's sweetheart because he looks like he could charge through that fence in a heartbeat.

Nice graphic too. Once you put the panoramic shots together, what are the steps to project it up on the wall to transfer it?

Lol. She's a olde English bulldog. Very nice and freakishly strong, your not getting the toy playing tug of war.
What do you mean get it on the wall? It's just a iPhone app. You take up to 10 pics. It shows you where the last one ended and you sorta line it up. When your done it puts all of them together. Pretty cool program

B'n'H, what's the coors light sign? Is that a poster, or a metal sign, or what? The silver bullet is my drink of choice in the winter months so I'm always looking for cool new memorabilia ideas besides a neon sign.

It's actually a billboard. Well part of one. My wife's uncle works for a billboard company and they switch them out every couple of months, but they're still in good condition. They come 20'x 10'. That was just a small can on the corner of the whole thing

Re: Lets see your one car garage!!!

I consider it more of a multi bike garage. Another SV and my VF500F are outside. Not quite there yet, walls still need paint, and I have to do something about the floor.

^^^ Still my inspiration, hoping that next summer mine will resemble it to a degree! Really digging those cabinets.

Here's mine as it currently sits, minus a bunch of the clutter in the back and the rider no longer being in there. I have that cleared out now, as well as a pegboard set up on the back left above the current work bench. It's still a work in progress, I usually try to get out there a few times a week to think of new ideas to de-clutter and what not....

Yeah I just bought some black painters plastic sheeting, can't remember the thickness though. About the same thickness as contractor trash bags though. I love having the floor, it's made the garage so much more useful. It's so nice not having to put on shoes or slippers just to go in there for something now that I keep my tools in there, not to mention how great it is to have a little play area for my 1 yr old son on those rainy days when he just wants to get out of the livingroom and do something different!
