Thanks for the reply!!

I haven't taken the time to add more pictures. The outside is completely done. Stone work on edge of driveway and then asphalt.

I've been slowly working on projects on the inside and cleaning out some of the random projects that I had acquired along the way.

Beautiful garage, you did an impressive job. I'm out in the Coatesville area, used to do some work in SpringGrove at the Glatfelter plant.

Dennis-- Thanks for stopping by my thread and reading through the details.

I need to post some more pictures of the progress on the inside. It's been a journey!

Gentle reminder to post some pics of progress on the inside...

-I usually don't read all the way through a garage build but I did with this one. First off, my condolences to you and your family for the loss of your FIL, his contributions to this project must be a somewhat bitter-sweet aspect when it reappears. Secondly, I'm rather impressed with the stages and end result of your garage. I've worked with a lot of engineers in my career and those that participate in the hands-on of their designs always raise my estimation of them. It was clearly a LOT of work and it really looks great. To have done all that with minimal help is quite the accomplishment. Must have been a few breathless moments when hoisting truss assemblies that nature brought a wind to fill your sails.

-As a CAD designer, I can appreciate how much the program helped with calculations/modifications/layout along the way. I can only estimate your assembly file sizes. Your overkill/overbuild features were of particular interest to me, I design/build that way too. Certainly not on the level you've done but I've modeled the house I bought to help me with remodeling, material calculations, and planning floor space. As a long time BMW owner it was disappointing to see you lose the E30 that I hope served you well. I've had a 2002, E23 733i w/MT, and an E36 currently being raised from the dead. Liked all the photos you've included and sharing this entire thread with us, thanks.

Guys, thanks for stopping in!! Yeah, somedays I miss that E30 - it was amazing what that little car would do. Maybe I'll get another one further down the road. In the meantime, there's plenty of other projects.

I've got a ton of pics, it's just taking the time to organize, upload and write up a few details...
