    Given the look of the wheels, could this be one of the rare supercharged 1957 models?

    ^^^^ Licence plate is misleading. This car is an E Code (dual quad carbs from factory) with 3 speed over-drive manual transmission. Very few of these cars were configured as such from new.

    More of the interior of the standalone garage/shop:

    Beautiful T-Bird. Gun metal gray with red interior...Best color combination EVER! IIRC a E-Bird just like yours sold at Barrett Jackson (I think) for $300,000+. Great car!

    Agree with the color combination. Every show we have entered this car in has resulted in some type of win, from "Best 50's" to "Best Of Show" to "People's Choice" award.

    You can only imagine my surprise and delight when the numbers rose nearly exponentially at BJ for the Minter restored copy of this car. Clearly, this car is not from the Minter family, but from a fellow in the Seattle area that had lots of talent and owned the car for well over 40+ years until he allowed the car to become a part of our collection.

    We are thrilled to be the current caretakers of this car and to be the 7th owners since new.

    Pretty modest garage (house was built in 1950) and we have very strict covenants that limited my options, but it works for me and my needs. Tools and cabinets are in an alcove (rear, right) with a skylight. There is sufficient ambient light available with the doors closed. Best of all, at night I can see the cars from the pool and hot tub. The garage was inspired by Ferris Buehler and can accommodate four cars.

    I dislike you a tiny bit after seeing this picture solely based on the fact that I am extremely jealous of your AM Vantage and all that work space! Very nice!

    Not mine unfortunately, I just fix them, the customer sold it recently for £33k (7 years old, 30k miles) and went for a 4.7 hair dresser version, which will be coming in at some point probably! The AM dealers are average at best in the UK from my experience, that customer had a "running problem" which the dealer diagnosed as "it just needs a service sir" £750 later it was still the same! I took it in and found 5 spark plugs with cracked ceramic! Useless! I preferred the Vanquish in the background on the lift, crap gearbox but awesome car!

    Kind of crappy iPhone shot, and a few cars you can't see. But it's my garage. Always a bit messy, I like to think of it as a "working" garage.
