Garage Pics!!

In one corner I have some sofas where I can read or sit down and chat with friends that visit. Those are 246 cam covers on the wall, which I painted an incorrect red (but the magnesium was just too dull!).

And, finally, here is the view to the tiny pond and hill. It makes the garage a comfortable place for me to work on the cars or simply relax in.

My apologies for the overload of my garage. I thought some of you might find it interesting and give some ideas for your own garages, if you are building or remodeling. It has worked for me so far, and I really enjoy it.

No apologies necessary; very, very well done! Garages that are also working garages, and not just living rooms w/ cars in them, appeal to me. You have achieved a fantastic balance.

 

Beautiful...wonderful! Thanks very much for the pictures.

 

A beautiful, restrained design that shows off the cars exceedingly well.

 

wow, very beautiful garage!!!!

 

The Stratos is the gem, Andres.

Keep it forever. Don't let me buy it from you.

 

Andy, nice place your cars have. Love the landscaping out the windows. Enjoy.

 

Your pictures are beautiful to look an Andy, I also enjoyed reading your thread on the Garage Journal. Perhaps you should post a link to the thread as I'm sure many others would enjoy it as well.

By the way, thats a beautiful companion you have in the shape of a Rottweiler. My first dog was a Rottweiler, you cannot get a better friend than that.

 

Very nice, thanks for sharing! The Dino looks great in blue.

 

...and my garage like many has been a gradual evolution over the years. Heated floor, more space, better lighting, all on the wish/to-do list. I'm in awe of what so many of you have done, mine is merely a storage box among some truly spectacular settings shared here. one of my fave boards still

Nice progress, and nice cars too!

 

Nice set up, it's only cosmetic now , you got the important things

 

Thanks, Bryan, Kevin, David, Navdeep, Greg, all. I am glad you liked the garage. You will have noted the garage is actually quite simple. A rectangular shoe box, as the photo below shows (the roof is planted, which cuts down inside temperature by at least three degrees C). The walls are just plain white. It is quite easy to duplicate, if one were so inclined, or improve on.

I’ve had the Stratos for almost 40 years now, Kook. When I bought it, they were not expensive; you couldn’t give them away.

Bipolar, thanks. The garage and its contents pale incredibly with the garages on this board! Yes, Rottweilers are great companions and friends. I have one next to me now, as I write this.

Best,

Let me just add a view from outdoors, which brings me a great deal of pleasure in the evenings.

Have to say that your garage looks amazing. Some have more cars and more space, but the design and simplicity of yours is close to perfect.

 

that a kirkham ?

 

In design restraint can be both the boldest and best choice.

 

It looks awesome, nice setup!!
Looking forward for some changes/pics!

Here is an idea perhaps some may find useful. To conserve space, I used these cabinets that run on tracks for my spare parts. They are for record files but are quite useful and compact for storage. I have a motley collection of old cars, so I used VIN tags to remind me where things are.

Wow, just wow! You are killing me! You must has lot's of $$$$. Good for you, very nice. Your place is really awesome!

 

Very cool!

 

very clever. looks like an F1 shop

would love to know more about pricing, both for the cabinets and install.

 

It's a great idea. Here in Australia the cabinets are called a 'compactus' unit and they are available for a dime a dozen at used office furniture sellers.

I use two in my garage that are only 900mm wide with 450mm deep shelves but they have each 7 bays of shelving. They take massive weight in spare parts as they are designed for volume storage or business records and archives.

Generally 1000 - 1500 bucks will buy a used setup in really good condition. Try this link to Ebay Australia for some examples:

Take a look at this picture and you can see one of the six bay units right in front of the Testa.
