    WAY TOO MUCH! I packed it pretty tight before winter came.

    1940 pontiac, 1972 lemans, 1966 harley, 1997 Jeep Wranger, riding mower, all the shop equipment, shelving, an 253 engine on a stand for the 53 outside, wood furnace, etc, etc...

    But I can still park our 2 cars in there if it snows a lot. pretty tight, but I can do it.

    Okay, here are the pics from crazycarjohn.. I'm not sure how to post them all at once, but here is a link to my Album that I created.

    If someone can tell me how to post pics from my albums without specifying every one of them, that would be great!

    Too much but not enough. I have one of my projects sitting out side (72 4 door Tahoe) along with a 35 and 36 Ford fame. In the shop I have 1 customer build a 41 chevy PU going on and my sons 51 F1 truck (at least that drives so it can be put out side when needed) and then my list of shop tools as follows.

    Lazze's
    English wheel
    Power shrinker
    small shrinker and stretcher
    5" deep shrinker/stretcher

    Lincoln Tig
    Lincoln Mig
    Hypertherm Plasma cutter
    4'x14' ch***is table
    Drill press
    3' brake
    Iron worker PRO shear, brake, press, punch
    Hydro tube bender for roll cages and ch***is
    Tube roller for gradual tube curves
    80 gal air comp.
    2'x8' steel work bench
    9' of storage cabinets
    fridge
    (2) 42" wide SS tool boxes
    roll around cutting torch set
    Lots of wall shelves and metal racks


    And the reason I know all this because I just finished doing a list with sizes so I can plan out a full shop remodel so the new Whitney Jensen 4' x 14ga combination brake and a Wsyson 1652 stomp shear.

    My shop is just under 1100 sq and just not big enough for what I do but I can not afford a bigger shop so I need to do a better layout to make things work. On Grizzly tools web site you can do a "Digital dream shop" so I am going to use that and see what layout for my shop would work the best.

    Wish me luck!

    That sure is clean! My shop was built in 1910 and was the carriage house for winters for who knows how many years. I just spoke with the city today about maybe doing a tear down and rebuild but I can't afford that right now so re-layout it will be for awhile.

    Just one; my ;49 Ford coupe, a 2 engines, bumpers and parts. I got rid of my '50 and many of the parts I didn't need.

    I came to the realization that I can only handle one car at a time financially and time wise and the deal with the wife is that she can park her car in the garage for winter. Since we only have two car garage, I'm going to have to get a storage lift before I get another project. Paying storage for $150+ a month adds up quick!

    I have a 24x48 shed and it's still not enough! And the wife can still park in there any time she needs too. I always leave that spot open.

    Projects in the garage/shop? They are all projects! 6 "finished" drivable projects inside. 2 in progress projects. 4 outside waiting projects. Plus my wife's 2 cars in the attached garage. My daily driver sits outside.
