Default Garage "bling" pics

Pretty proud of my garage. Thought I would share and see if I could get others to post pics of yours. Still lots of signs to put up from the NHRA events I attended. Gives me a nice place to polish and mod the SS up. Its heated and cooled too.

That's awesome. I had mine looking until my roomate decided he was going to make it a storage building for all of he's crap. I swear I can barely get my car in and there is like 2 set's of wheels, 4 other wheels that don't match, 3 roll pans, probably over a $1000 dollars worth of LT-1 dressup parts for a street rod, and a bunch of more junk that needs to be taken out back and smashed with a sledge hammer. His comment when I say something about it is I'm going to put it on E-bay and sell it. Well it's been about 7 month's now. I had it looking good when I first moved in. Lot's of old signs, posters, and a big american flag hanging from the ceiling of course.

Looks good. Couldn't tell from the pictures but do you have TV? Watching a Little Overhaulin while you work is good motivation.

Thanks guys. Thats the bonus part. My garage is actually on the property that is next to where we currently live, so there is no chance of storage/house clutter to make its way there. Also the wife respects it as mine and only mine. In the future, we plan on building a home next to it.

The heated and cool part is a major bonus, you just have to remember to turn the thermostat down when you leave, or the electric bill gets alittle on the high side.

Actally I am pretty proud of it. Its been a home for the SS now for almost four years. Only negative is that the shop is on a dirt road and it kills me to drive the car on a dusty day. But I live with it.

Thanks again

I have tried two tv's and both havn't worked. So its a sterio only at this time. Once we actually build a home next to it, then good old Direct TV will have to make its way out there. Though where to get a working tv is still in question.

That looks great, but you're not using that exercise equipment right. It's supposed to be used to hang laundry, like my Bowflex.

Nice garage...the wife and I are currently looking for property to build a house and the floor plan we picked has a both a 2-car garage and a double bay "workshop garage" which essentially will give me 4 car capacity...I've already inquired about altering the house plan to incorporate a 12' ceiling in the workshop for a two-post lift...let the madness begin!!!!

I think I see a mini-fridge?!

Heated/cooled, very nice. The freezing cold garage is usually the thing that keeps us drinking our "work on the car beers" inside the house, and never working on the car LOL

I like it. The bathroom is a must, something I have to do in the future. Water in house is also nice for washing hands and stuff. I also have a four car garage with the double being the SS home and the middle for future Camaro and the end for the wifes car. But right now those garages are being used for construction storage.

Thats funny, you should smell it too. It needs some Fabreeze (sp?). But it came out of our house and instead of trashing it, I figured I would use them, that way if they get dirty, no lose.

I was going to hold out for a leather sofa and lazyboy, but that ended up in our house somehow. LOL
