    That's my theme. Find stuff I like and hang it on the walls. I'm starting to put more shelves for either display or storage up higher on the walls since my walls are 12' high so I have less **** hanging around on the floor.

    Remember when the "man cave":confused: was a thing, this is my idea of said dwelling!

    Lots of cool displays. You guys are neat and organized. I look more like a hoarder.

    I need more of this sort of inspiration to get out in the shop this winter and organize...decorate, or whatever you want to call it.

    I blame this book on my seemingly out of control collectibles buying... hotrodcollectiblesandmem.jpg

  19. The theme of my place is old hot rod stuff. Some of it is broken, incomplete or worn out. Some of it is ready to use or trade. There are things I regret letting go in the past so I tend to hold on to things now. I wish I could fucus on one era but I like it all. Slowly ac***ulated over the years. Engines are mostly empty blocks. IMG_2397.jpeg IMG_2375.jpeg IMG_2380.jpeg IMG_2378.jpeg IMG_2376.jpeg IMG_2381.jpeg IMG_2399.jpeg

    Some really cool shops here !!
    Makes me really wish I had wood walls. I cant hang **** off of the spray foam insulation. Ive recently started selling off & giving away a ton of my "collectibles" & only keeping car & motorcycle parts. I just gave away a few hundred Hot Wheels & an old Nitro RC plane last week. No one local even wanted the few hundred car mags I had.

    Ya all got some serious collections here!

    My garage has a theme: Cluttered and Used, with heat.

    The clutter doesn't seem to bother my son when he wants to work one something in my heated garage, and my grandson and my son in law are using that heated garage to do brakes on a late model GMC pickup tomorrow.

    My shop is a working shop, not a man cave. I can't have a lot of clean stuff on shelves or walls, it would get filthy. The good auto related stuff is in my house where it will stay clean.
