Have a relatively small working garage, 24 x 36 dedicated to the care and feeding of the car you see in the pics. Since I live on my own I do not need a refuge of my own so no TV but I do take my laptop on days like today where I am just puttering and cleaning up.

Was in very good shape when I moved in but 7 years later I need to do some maintenance.

Shelving in one corner with my welder cart, bottom of the line mig on the top shelf which I only use for sheet metal, Maxstar 150 TIG below which I do 99% of my welding with

Small welding table, have made a lot of parts on it, 3 sheet metal 9 inch Ford rearend housings so far, all of the pcs of the T-Bird that did not get welded on the car got welded on that bench.

T-Bird was a 2 year project, started with this car

And this chassis kit

Pretty decent space. Nice to have another Ford racer on the board. Good looking t-bird. Nice pile of tubing! Who supplied the chassis kit?

24' x 30' is a workable amount of space and it looks like it's serving your needs. I have a single 16' door, I like your twin door setup better.
I have a similar size garage, 2 years ago it was bare studs and dirty concrete floor, the building was built in 1984 and now that I'm retired I've had the time to work on the inside. The photo was taken just after I put in the heater and some lights, look at the video to see the progress inside.

Chris I use the same user name everywhere, you have seen that car many times on Fordmuscle and The FE Forum. Been watching your shop expansion, looks good.
S & W chassis kit.

NICE shop,
I could not help but notice the home made parts cleaner, you should do a write up on the workings of that for us.
