Here's my garage/shop. It took me 2 years to build this. Except for clearing the land and pouring the concrete I did almost everything myself. I had 2 employees help me frame and roof it, which took 1 week. My 2 sons helped with the siding and hanging the sheetrock (nothing like involuntary labor). I still have a long list of odds and ends to do on it but I have a warm dry place to work on my cars.

That is sweet! Do you use it for business or is it for personal use? I like the fact that there is alot of lighting and shelving for storage. But the best is the involuntary labour.

Okay, I see the early 70's Polara/Fury/Newport on the right, the 73ish Charger in the middle, but what's the one on the left?

Gorgeous garage man. Exactly what I would want if I had the room to do it. :thumbup:

After a little enhancement, I agree with the T/A. I would've thought it would be another Mopar.

Nissan 240sx???? Fiero???. You guys are ruthless. :lol_hitti

To clear up the car issue. Left to right. 97 Firebird, 71 Charger, 72 Charger.
Being a contractor the garage is for both business and play. The bay where the Fiero :moon: is has shelving on both sides for all my assorted valuable junk. Unfortunately my brother sold his house and needed a place to store some stuff so that bay is kinda full right now. My Chargers have the middle bays, I have room to store stuff in front of them and plan to put the air compressor for the shop out there. I had the roof trusses in the garage area designed for light storage so I can put some stuff up there(more of my bro's junk) The shop is 30x50 with 11' ceilings. The shelving is great when your taking apart a car. I'm also putting up some wall cabinets I saved when we renovated some condos 8 years ago.
A few more pics. First one is the 5' frost wall. Second one is starting on the frame. That's my wife and youngest son helping out. There is something about nail guns that kids just love. THird one is the walls framed up waiting for trusses.

I thought it looked sorta Fiero-ish. :lol:


That's a great looking garage, I like all the trees around the area too...I'm in a semi-desert area, instead of trees, we have sagebrush. :bubbrubb: :(
