Show your garage --

[goodfellow]

We had some fun with this thread on the previous version of the GG

I have a small two-car garage, approx 860sf and and it's good enough to do most of my wrenching and welding. Thank goodness I also have a small heated detached machine shop next to this garage for machining and electronic repair work.









It looks better at night -- less dust and dirt to see in the pics -- LOL

dayum.  I approve.   I am trying to make my garage into something similar.  I have two awesome 8' workbenches that I built (see thread somewhere on this site lol, I forget where I posted it) and one 4' workbench.  need to get some of the rest of the garage organized.   I would love that scissor lift  that you have..

Trust me you do not want to see my dinky little half of a single car garage, not that I want to embarrass myself showing it

GF has a very nice, well equipped shop that is quite organized.  What is surprising is that he lives at the end of a cul de sac in suburbia and you would never think to find a shop like that there.  I can only imagine what he would do with 2,000 sq ft of shop with high ceilings and a couple of acres of buffer around him,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,oh the projects he could do

Looking forward to see his new shop when he retires and gets the chance to have a shop that big.

This is more of a "Show your garage at night" photo, but it does a great job of hiding the mess within    This was a couple nights ago.

My Garage,  back during construction in 2013.   Has walls now, and some,,,,, well, lots of stuff in there.  Two cars, extra engines, 3 tool boxes, air compressor,  enough room to walk between if you are coordinated. Yes, has doors now too.   Photo taken last year,  should have a concrete apron on it, but darnit, real life intruded again.

How is the jaq coming?

How is the jaq coming?

Moving forward -- thanks for asking Walrus. The car is at a local specialty shop to get the electricals double checked. I had a problem with the aftermarket wiring harness blowing fuses. I chased that wiring harness through every circuit and could not find the cause. Rather than spending the time and drive myself crazy I sent it to a Jag specialist to find the cause and to install the aftermarket Petronix electronic ignition. Only problem is that they are so backed up that I won't have it back to until late Nov. at the earliest. Also still trying to find an upholsterer to do the interior, but the few that have done these Jaguar specialty interiors are few and far between in this area. It's like interviewing for a 9-5 job.

The complete interior cost around $4500 and the install will most likely cost another $1500-2000 -- there goes my Christmas money 

Until that time I'm working on installing the wiring harness and the lower valance in the bonnet. The bonnet and valance has been sitting patiently in my basement for three years. Time to get it to the ready stage. I'll take some pics next time I'm working on the bonnet.

Cheers!

Will show the best part of my shop/garage in the attached photos.  Will show more later, has a large semi-clean work room and an additional three bays for a total of about 3000 square feet.  Here is the best part.

Nice. Cars are money pits, Jaqs are bigger money pits   I think a lot of us are anxious to see it done
