Bill, That's one nice garage. Absolutely beautiful. I may have missed it, but how did you decide on the style? Is the rest of you home similar? Drew
Thanks for the complement! It was a lot of work with many people over 6 months. I asked our interior decorator to design a garage. She says she doesn't do garages. So I say, "Can you make it look like the house with cars in it?" She says, sure!
Well, when they're the one's who invented the Wing you need to eat them in a special place. So naturally, in front of an Enzo is the proper place. _J
Any updates on the garage, did it turn out to be used the way you originally allocated the cars' parking spaces as?
Pretty much. Here's what it looked like tonight. We occasionally swap out the RS, CS and Ruf. The Enzo, CGT and F40 pretty much stay. Image Unavailable, Please Login
We like that we can have dinner with the cars and have them on the road in 30 seconds. Other things we plan to do to make it more usable and friendly: - Bring in heat so we can enjoy it during the cool winter evenings. - Add ceiling speakers for music. - Add B&W race photos of the cars on the walls. The first set was very light, but tipped up (and hit the bottom of the car) on the uneven ground from the brick to the tile. Bradan is working on a new version that has a hinge to help that. Funny how complicated a lightweight ramp could be! We still like to look at it... even without an engine. But all the cars are covered in plastic so there's less worry about damage. Thanks! Many very talented and experienced people helped make this possible. Thanks! My wife and I like taking the cars out in pairs. The F40/CGT and Enzo/CGT is fun, as well as the CS/RS. The car we most often drive together in is the Enzo just because it's so different from the others. The Enzo is a thrill even at low speeds.
That is definitely a very important part. I grew up around a company that was involved in air quality and many car collections had this addressed. You have one amazing project and collection, looking forward to the finished pictures.
