Its far from organized, but i got stuff moved around so i can start to do some work. Just a few details, 22x40, 9ft ceilings. 1/2 electric hoist gettting installed soon, 75k btu gas heater(hanging) needs hung, adding another 100 amp panel, just for 220 lines, and a few more plugs.

well here are a few pics. will take a few of the house and get them up soon as well

ya, the motor is sitting over by the wall. I broke the starter boss off the block, and decided to fix it the right way...by buying a lq4 for it. I started all of that then we moved, and it been crazy since. I took the kmember back out tonight, got the welder wired up, time to go back to work..

Its 22x40 yes, there is definately some room in there. I have room to park the better halfs jeep, and space to work on both the black camaro and the mg midget. and still have a nice welding area. btw...if anybody has any welding curtains they might want to get rid of let me know.

Looks like a lot of room you would be surprised how much painting the ceiling white will brighten it up in there and make it a lot easier to see.

ya, i had to finish putting up the osb on the front half of the garage, seems the previous owner didn't feel like finishing it. I also need to install pull down stairs for the attic and man cave. after that, i'm going to pull down all the lights and spanish lace the whole thing and paint it white.
