quasarcoupe's garage

[Quasarcoupe]

My first post here so here goes, here is what is lurking in my garage....




when it was semi cleaned out it looked like this but i have had a few projects in since then and we all know what happens when you have too much going on and not enough room



Now its a little messier, and i have basically a whole 383 golden commando(65 fury) motor sitting on the left bench, minus the block thats in the other corner






the fridge and parts for my 64 cutlass( the neverending project), seats up top and lots of other stuff under the cover to keep semi dust free




Two of the current toys, 93 quasar blue vette, and 1971 duster with a worked 440 in it, i also have a 64 cutlass at a friends garage.

Heeeeeeeeeey we have the same garage fridge LOL . You have more room than me though My garage is a 2 & 1/2 but theres a stairwell in the 1/2 part so only really room for one major project and no drivers inside.

yeah i was lucky enough to get the fridge free actually. I belong to a group called Freecycle and its about keeping things out of the land fills, i just posted on there i needed a fridge and I was contacted and went and got this one, it was kinda nasty inside , but with some scrubbing and water she came clean and works like a charm. I just wish i had water in the garage so i could use the ice maker , that way i dont have to buy ice when on the way to a party with the cooler.

ROFLMAO wanna guess where I got my fridge at I'll give ya a hint it was free too and it was off of a Yahoo group theres also CHeapcycle . I used my pressure washer to clean mine out and it was almond when I got it so I painted it with appliance white epoxy paint . I also belong to freecycle and cheapcycle . I got all of my garage cabinets off of craigslist by putting a wanted add on there all metal Geneva kitchen cabinets free .

hahaha, sound like you are as thrifty as me, most of the benches and shelving units i have were free or very little cost, i still need to reorganize and add some more where needed, but not right now, i have too much in the way and not enough motivation to do it right.

I have been reorganising my garage for at least 2 years . I started the reorganize here

I have to move thwe lower cabinets along the back wall the ones I installed at the beginning of the redo as the garage is not deep enough with them there to get my 63 unibody truck in now .I am quite thrifty .

haha, thats the way the wifes garage looks, i didnt mention we have a 2 car on the house, but it is designated the wifes cause she didnt want to walk out in the snow in the winter, then next thing you know she cluttered it all up and now cant park in there at all, I gave it the " not my problem". the 3 car is mine



here is the house and the garage is out back where the arrow is, thats my old lifted dodge ram and thats my old 67 mustang in the street, both will be missed.

Its nice but if you restore a car you need all three bays for the one car.lol, thats why my 64 cutlass is at my buddies garage and not here, plus the fact he has many more tools

For hooking up the ice maker and not having a water supply just take a small water tank or water fountain jug and plumb it into the ice maker.With a fill up from the garden hose once in a while mine does great.

Is that a California Special? I think only the C/S's had the side scoops.

My buddy did this in his garage, we tee'd off at the water spigot, then used a float to shut the water off at a certain level.

nah she was a regular coupe, added after market shelby scoops, and snagged the rims direct from centerline at a steal in their overstock section, the rims cost 250 each, i got all 4 for 400 to the house!


heres a few more pics of the old stang.

 

[Quasarcoupe]

forgot to mention it had a newer model carbed 5.0 and T-5 5speed out of a 91, it was a blast to drive, i prob shouldnt have sold it but i get bored after a awhile and need a new project, i did do well with the sale though. the car is somewhere in nothern Virginia , a guy came down and bought it for his wife(she was hot i dont blame him.lol). think they live in perryville or berryville.
