That will have to wait until I get internet at home... :o

Took me a while, as it's been a very busy summer, but here's a few pics.

and the party room without all the previous owner's stuff cluttering the walls...

I still need to build some display cases for my toy tractors and diecast cars, but working on the Chevelle is the priority when I get free time, which between the yard, work, and 2 young boys, "free time" is tough to find.

Nice shop and party room. Love the tractors, looks like so do the boys if you let them ride them

I am SO jealous.

The kids love the tractors, but despite having 5 pedal tractors and 2 pedal cars, and only 2 kids, they still seem to fight over the same one... doesn't matter which one, just the one the other kid has. :rolleyes:

It's nice having a place for the kids to play while I work on stuff though. Hopefully it will be a little easier when it gets cold, so they stay in there instead of trying to watch them while they roam around outside.

Wonderfull home my friend!
Enjoy, be happy and the best for you and family!

So you're the one percent we keep hearing about:D

It looks like you got settled in pretty good ,congrats as it looks great . I too like the tractors ,the little guys have good taste .And welcome back to our little world ,Ive been busier this summer myself .

I am so, so jealous !!!!! Not only of the space, but of the vehicles. Congrats !!! Looks great.

I was jealous before, these new pics just made it worse. Good for you man beautiful place.

Time for some peg board or sheet rock on those walls. I agree I'm jealous, I wish I had that much room in my garage.

Sheetrock will have to wait until the Chevelle is back together, but I do plan on finishing it all off eventually. I need more lighting and some additional wiring for 220V too, so that will all need to be done before sheeting it too.

I'm too cheap to hire it done, and too busy to do it myself, so it might never get finished... I also plan to finish off the smaller 2-car garage first, so who knows when I'll get around to it. :o

Do what I did. I put all the wiring and electrical in myself. Had about six friends over for beer and pizza and sheet rocked the garage in about 2 hours. Found a guy that did taping on the side and for $200 tape and textured the ceiling in a weekend. Cost was less then $500 to finish the entire garage.

In my younger years I did something similar on a roofing project for my house .I borrowed a dump truck from my boss ,stopped by the beer store on the way home and bought all the beer I could fit in the cab with me and called on a local pot dealer for some weed and we had a shingle party . I told the guys that as soon as the roof was done they could have at it and let me tell you I had friends show up I hadnt seen in years .
