Garage Rehab...

I’ve been stuck in a crappy garage for 4 years now and it finally changed.
It’s not huge but it has enough space for the ‘70 & ‘65.

It was dar and raw but this week i re-roofed it, painted it top to bottom and gave it some character.
Can’t tell you how pleased I am with the results.
Now I can finally start emptying my storage units and brining my toys home!
Enjoy!
-Peter

Wow! That red and blue stripe really makes the place look nice! That's really cool.

Yeah, I've wanted this garage for awhile and figured if i didn't do it now, I'd never do it.
Wish I had the ca$h to epoxy the floor, but that will have to wait.

Now I need to get my workbenches, cabinets, shelves and signs to fill it up!

Dig it! I can almost see where the compressor, blast cabinet, paint booth, and work bench are going to live

Let there be light!
And tonight I added 10 LED lights.
Super good deal on amazon.

Congratulations. There is nothing better than a great garage for an old car hobby.

Great job! Paint scheme...cool. Mass quantities of LED lights...outstanding. Hell, if I just cleaned 20 years, of never throwing anything away, out my garage it would be an accomplishment.

BTW...you missed a spot.

Looks Like you have plenty of starage space up top in the rafters. Also the Red and Blue really looks great together. Nice job!
