First, great looking garage, and nice toys.
Second, Hey! I am hoping to build mine the same way. I have a double lot, with my house on one side and a vacant lot next to it. The house is a 1940 craftsman house, typical build: narrow up front, long on the sides. Because of the way the lots and house are arranged, it would be a squeeze to access a garage from the side. But, I have a long and decently wide size to work with, around 35X60, so I am thinking of building a garage around 30 ft wide but a little more than two cars deep.
How much of an area do you have in front of the garage doors? I am thinking of making the access in the rear. Keep the neighbors out of my business, y'know?

Nice garage! That is exactly what I am going to build real soon. What is the pitch of your roof. What was the total cost of the project?

Any info on cost???
ALL building materials except electrical: $10500-11000
Concrete work (includes concrete slab, a concrete approach at each end, gravel for fill and driveway in back, tearing down and removing the old 12x20 garage and slab, and laying a course of blocks around the perimeter): $9100
The construction was done by friends, so I don't have any cost info there. I'm doing the electrical/lighting little by little as I have time, so I haven't really kept track of material costs for that.
