Updating My Garage

[OldSchool26]

Well, decided after 10 years of painting other peoples stuff, it is time to update my garage. A friend helped me run more electricity. Started cleaning and re-painting the interior. Here's a couple pictures of the back wall. Plans are to put a black and white checker board pattern for the border around the top of the garage. I'll port more pics when I get a little further..
I'm new to this site, so I hope the pics show up...

Nice looking roadster. Is that a different set of slicks in the garage, or are they the same ones you have pictured on the car? M/T's I presume?

The slicks on the floor are origanal M/Ts from the early 60's, I had them on the car for about the past 2 years, but they were getting hard from age. they still look good, so I think I will find a way to display them some where around the garage.
The slicks on the roadster are new repros from Radir.

I love the look of those slicks. Hell yeah, use the old ones for garage art. Mount them on a set of some old type mags or chrome reverse and just put em in the garage to look at them.....

Well, after searching a lot of ideas, finally decided on a paint scheme for my garage. Here are a few pictures. I still plan on putting black and white VCT under the hot rod, probably wait until fall.

The frame looks good!!! And stout!!! What drive train are you running?
Are you going to chop the top? Hope I'm not asking to many questions, but, these old hot rods!!! Have you decided on a body color?
Keep up the good work!!!
