Alright I'll give this a go even though I am not 100% finished. Still need to clean up a tad, finish up the decor and lay the racedeck flooring that hasn't come in yet.

But here is my progress so far...

Just needs a floor and little more decor now

I wanted everything off the floor and in its own place. Its still getting there. I have cleaned it up some since, most of that stuff on the shelves was crap. I have just recently started to do some automotive work in it finally. It's kind of tight but I'm getting used to it. Last week I installed wheel spacers on a buddies JK Unlimited and rotated his tires. Then last Sat I installed new struts/shocks on my dads 07 SL and a tire rotation. When I was in there I noticed it needed brakes, so I installed new pads as well. Then Mon. I installed a 2" lift on said Jeep.

Put some 8ft lights in place of two 4ft's and moved the 4ft's all next to each other above the mustang's home to create a six light fixture there.



Oh yea and the pink tricycle? It's fast

Mostly used for detailing but sometimes it gets used for messing around



I'm still rocking the tool box from my first garage too

Very nice garage Street Reeper! Love how the 3rd car garage opens from BOTH ends! That's awesome.

Thanks. I faced the house north and south and put that in for extra access but also because of the breeze. Opening that door gives a nice constant gust of free air for the garage if you want it.

It sure was nice for a one car garage. I was renting there for 5 years and after a few years I decided to just move all my tools over from my parents 2 car garage. I really crammed that space full. I spent weeks cleaning, painting, wiring, and setting up things to get them just so. I also had all kinds of storage in the daylight basement, full to the gills with parts galore.

But, I have moved on to bigger and better things! Bought a house in August 2013 and it has been a work in progress ever since. I now have a 2 car garage with a full 2nd floor. Tons of space for tons of tools and parts. Its not finished so it doesn't have the same wow factor as my old spot. It sure doesn't heat as easy either without insulation.

I'll try and load some photos.

For Nissan Maxima
I got this and thought it was a bit overboard but it is the right tool. At first I bought this smaller jack but realized that it didn't get the car up high enough.

I used the emergency jack a few times and was like this is too big of a b*#*h I need a bigger jack.
