My mancave

[tylers88]

Hi guys Im pretty new here and getting some ideas but here is what I have done for now. Its 16' wide and 47' long. Sits strait northand south and is attatched to my house, overhead door and one walking door on the south wall plus a walk in door on the northwall. I still have some posters and racing banners to hang up but this is a start. I will keep this updated as I figure out where the banners will be going and some more storage for truck parts.

This is on the west wall in the northwest corner of the garage, you can see the edge of the walk in door on the north wall. The boxes are now where the drawer above them is and that drawer is sitting on top of the other on the lower shelf.

This is the northeast corner, my toolbox is sitting next to the door. In the corner next to the box is an end table with some storage, my cart is tucked in between the endtable and the love seat, and no man cave would be complete with out a beer fridge.

*UPDATE*
View media item 12600My workbench, currently working on my 88 thats why the bench is a mess. I put differant horns in it, Buick horns that sound like train horns, adjusted the bumper and painted the core support. Tote is full of small block parts, the block is tucked away behind the speaker to the right of the bench. Crankshaft doubles as a door prop.

Thanks first off thanks, I plan on smoothing the floor and painting it. I also want to sheetrock the walls and ge them painted a light grey.

As far as the floor (and painting it) goes, definitely check out the flooring section!

They have great ideas on paint (epoxy), or VCT, tile, wood, or plastic (polymer?) tiles.

I would also recommend you check out some of the great builds people have done here and get inspired for your wall paint. It is a slippery slope.

Consider yourself warned

Thanks for the warning, I am thinking of buying a building in around 6-8 years. Then this will become my true mancave lounge

Looks good man! Gray paint should lighten that place up! Looks like you could use a new light fixture or two as well.

Yea I plan on putting a ton of lights in there, thinking standard floresant light up front but some that produce a more "natural" light for the back because I would like to start detailing cars on the side and I HATE having a car look good under standard floresant but pull it outside and it looks like ****.
