id say a good set of lights in there, also a WOOD work bench you can beat things and paint on and not give a ****. also x12387954 with the sealed floors. good other wise, the only thing i dont like is the springs hanging on the wall... just hang stuff on the wall? is it like "steal me now?" otherwise if its stock parts put em in a box and store it, it looks kinda weird. but i guess if it has a function then by all means

Maybe a Pontiac flag/banner in the top left, above the clock?
As someone else mentioned, get 2 more jack-stands.
Good assortment in the cabinet. I'd add some FluidFilm to the collection--it's made life a LOT easier.
Workbench will make things a lot easier.
Got a dremel? Sawzall? They've come in handy too.
What's in those boxes in the bottom of the cabinet? Sockets, ratchets & wrenches?
What's the plate cover doing on the wall? Put that **** on, STAT.
I'd lose the playboy mag in the garage, Fast & Furious book/thing, & Vtech anything
Maybe a street sign or speed limit sign, if you can get your hands on one.
Probably some decent speakers to play some music out of that laptop when you're in there; nothing too expensive, just something that'll get the job done.
Replace the jets CRAP with some Dallas gear... Smith or Aikman jersey, perhaps?
but, it looks like you've put a lot of hours into that garage. Good job man

And upset the wife? We collect and look at adult magazines together, if you want me to get rid of that one magazine I don't even wanna tell you how big the stack is in the smaller garage cabinet. 
I made it into a firehawk by sanding the hood bulges down and cutting the hood scoops.
I hung stuff on the wall because if not it'd take up room in a closet somewhere. Better to make them a decorative peice than garbage in a box I was thinking.
Aw! An engine stand would be awesome! I'd love to rebuild an engine, even if it was some garbage engine from a junk yard! And I do need to learn how to paint.

Needs more tools, unless you don't do any of the work yourself? Drill press, welder mig or tig, welding table, workbench with a good vise, shop lights, a 80 gal min air compressor, airlines all over the garage, electrical outlets.
No nick nacks or sissy stuff, pics of girls is always welcome along with a fridge. I wouldn't get too carried away with a couch and stuff like that. Is it a garage or a playhouse? Hang out inside and watch tv on the big screen and have the wife bring you and your friends samichesss.
Either way it looks good dude. These are just what i think that should go into a garage. Keep the pics coming. -G

Man caves are not complete without a nasty ol couch and an avacado colored kelvinator fridge with a hastily mounted chevy symbol from a junk yard. Definitely needs a work bench, bigger compressor (mounted outside... for the love of God), and some misc welding tanks. You're on the right track! If you need a big ol' tool box then just get the red 90320 from harbor freight. Its built off a snapon design that they purchased from snapon... and you can get it for less than $400.
