My Friend's Garage

[NAC]

Here are some photos from his garage. I'm envious, wish I could clear out all the **** in my garage and store it elsewhere.

Pictures? I don't see no pictures. Forget something or am I just too dumb to know better?

 

[NAC]

Don't know why the photos didn't upload. Lets try it again.

That's a lot of cars

 

[White Chocolate]

i think that has ceased being a garage and become something else......

 

[REFLEXX]

I'm just curious if there's a 1/24th scale two -post lift in there. You know, for when he's got to work on all those cas!!!

that looks like an addiction! I prefer 1/5th scale and up. But dang! that looks nice.

OMG that is huge car collection. Does he park a real car in there?

 

[NAC]

The models are 1:18 scale. Mostly muscle cars. Here is a photo with his SUV in the garage. He also builds 1:18 dioramas. I will have to dig up some photos of those.

I thought I was looking at a retail store display!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe a little over the top for my taste, but nuntheless, awsome!!!

 

[NAC]

Steve,

Funny you should say that, as he used to have a storefront where he sold this stuff. Years ago he closed it up and moved up North. He now sells thru eBay.

Here are some garage diorama's that he made.

 

[joecaver]

the dioramas are very cool and realistic.

So, he builds little garages in his big garage?

 

[Luckydevil]

Does he hand make all the little parts? Compressors, hanging belts, lifts, etc. I've never seen those in a model kit before.

 

[NAC]

Luke,

No, he buys them. They are expensive little devils.

[No, he buys them. They are expensive little devils.]

Geez, just when I thought I'd found a garage and lift I could afford

 

[Hammerdown]

Nice (a-hem) garage!

 

[NAC]

Some of the pieces can be purchased from GMP. Check here: http://www.gmpdiecast.com/products/default.cfm?category=Tools and Trailers
It's not uncommon to have hundreds of dollars of small parts in one of these. And that is before adding the model car, plus time building it.

That is some neat stuff! Those models are cool as hell - very detailed and realistic - like all of the **** on the roof in the first one (and I thought I was the only one that used the roof of the car for storage!).

Very impressive.

I like those dioramas. I like how the first-aid kit door is proped open and the ******* girl poster (everybody needs one). Very realistic.

Looks like he is a collector. He has some nice things there.
