Mine was 24x30 then added 16' bay afew years back. This past year I raised the ceiling height in the middle bay to 13' so I could install a lift. Now filling the walls with signs and such. Always something to do in the shop.

 :drool:   :drool:  I love that garage and all of those signs.

What is that white stuff under the car?  some special Dirt?

That was fresh concrete before I painted the floor with a two stage expoxy paint. Sky blue and clear with coloured paint chips sprinkled on under the clear. ;)

Found a photo of the floor just after I painted it. I can tell when it was because it is still clean and there is not piles of parts and tools all over the place. ;D

My Challenger had to stand outside on the driveway for about 13 years? British garages in towns are built just large enough to take a small car with nothing else in it. Unless you have a lot of money of course. So I had to wait until I could afford to replace my original garage with something bigger. When I bought the house the main attraction was the extra 6-foot of land at the side that most houses in this area do not have.

The back third of the new garage is a kitchen extension and utility room. Well I had to sell the idea to my wife somehow didn't I? :naughty:

I can see Jim's user name just fine at home and here at work. I'll bet it's your monitor setting TreeFrog.
