g9m3c Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Well, it's more my garage than my workshop, but I do quite a lot of work in there. I cleaned it out a couple weeks ago and this is what it looks like in its clean state. I still haven't gotten around to cleaning off that damned workbench though. When I first moved in here, the garages was a MESS, filled with all of my roomate's crap everywhere. The first thing I did was throw it all out in the driveway. I put up the shelves on the sides you can see in the pics, built the workbench in the back, and put three 4' double fluorescent bulb fixtures in there. MUCH better after I got it all organized. There also wasn't a garage door on there. We convinced the land lady to have one installed for us. I still have some more plans, but there's only so much you can do with a 12'x20' space.

m1noel Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Here's mine, if you can call it a workshop. Sorry, its all kind of a mess right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 Here's mine, if you can call it a workshop. Sorry, its all kind of a mess right now. Mess!!! That's funny! You should see mine when i really get into it! I do a MAJOR cleaning and reorganizing abou every two months or so! Between the Z project and home improvements my garage turns into a wreck of building supplies and strewn tools! The garage is now my "workout" space as well. In laws gave us an elliptical that I will be using to at least attempt to halt my increase in girth. Although, it's been "too cold" to get out there recently.... or at least that's what the wife is told! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Purple240zt Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 This was before I moved in, hence it not being filled to the rafters with crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedRacer Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 When we built our retirement home I wanted to have enough room for projects so my garage is 25' wide by 40' deep. The front half has a 10' ceiling and the back half has a 14' ceiling so I have plenty of room for a lift. I think I am going to go with Grumpyvettes recommendation and buy a two post lift.

g9m3c Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Wow, I can't wait to move out of this house. There's absolutely no room to build a shop, and I doubt the land lady would let me. Your shops are truly inspiring. Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My boys are pretty good on the board though. Lots of tricks. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horatio Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 I knew mine would quickly be put to shame! I met Mark down in NC a few weeks ago. He had a killer shop and a couple unreal z's. Maybe he'll chime in and post some pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue72 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Here's my old digs where I rebuilt and swapped my engine and rearend, painted the engine bay and generally overthrew when I moved in. Here's the shop I'm managing (and occasionally using the resources of:)) right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
