Your Cars at Your Garage, Let's See Em

Man. There are some good garages out there and shop area. I need a bigger shop.. I think I have enough parts and projects to fill a 5 car shop. I make do with my teeny 1.5 car garage. Here are a couple from last year. I don't have any good current ones but will get some after this weekend if everything goes according to plan..

This is before I really jumped into my A build and started taking it seriously.


And then a couple months later when I decided to clean it up a bit so I could move some stuff around and get a little more organized. I've done a bit of reorganizing since these pictures though.


This weekend, I'll be bringing a bunch of my dad's stuff home from a friend of his' shop. We had been putting it off because our schedules never really worked together. I decided to just put the A build on hold for the time being until I got all of the parts and equipment from the shop.

The white cabinet is the one I'm most excited about bringing home. It'll be going where the 2 motors are in the previous pictures. The next two are the biggest equipment to bring home, the rest will fit into boxes.. Thank God.



As for security.. There's always someone home here and only one HAMBer knows where I live and I trust him pretty good. Good neighbors as well as the safe part in town. I'm not that worried.

 

Wow, that cabinet is cool!

 

Having been a Soldier most of my life I have never had my own garage. Every car I have had, built or worked on has been in borrowed garage space. Man have I had some mates that were good to me.
This is my last build, sadly gone now. Started in the car park of my barracks until the MPs chased me out. Then most of these pics are in a mates shop down in Nowra NSW, the last one is in my best mates place from the Army, he was good enough to let me basically have the garage.
Its sitting on mock-up wheels and tyres, 302C, C4, *inch Rear. This was going to be a daily driver so it wasn't exactly Trad but had the look.











The guy in the background is Al Winter, a great bloke who built my chassis for me. I'm trying to find a pic of his 30A Coupe, 401nailhead in it, nice car and real fun to drive.

Doc.

1951 Chevrolet Coupe kicking back in my garage

 

When the wife's car goes in its pretty cramped. Having three projects at once wouldn't be the problem, would it?

 

'35 out the front in garage, '46 out the rear shed. Still not enough space.

 

25 yr old picture

 

yes..i paint everything,so i bought a casket for myself....it`s used and only 150,-euros(200,-$) cheap he,he....

 

What an awesome looking '32. Looks like a damn well proportioned coupe. What came of it?

 

My car, my little garage.

 

many changes in the last 6 years . dart went to build the 29 , 29 went to build the rambler , the 70 is here for a long time (35 years so far) and any extra $ go into more tools ! oh ya - the 55 ford truck is still taking space up till the grandson and i finally get back to work on it . he is almost 16 and seems really interested in girls and guitars (not a bad thing )

 

Took the nailhead out and put a flattie in it. Today the body in on a different chassis powered by an all aluminum ZL1 BB Chevy. Here is another pic with the flat motor in it. My 36 3W is in the backround.
