In the heart of downtown Newport KY sits my humble garage originally built as a horse stable circa 1886

Wow Chuck, always thoughtf your avatar was your car on a showroom floor. Never knew it was your garage, very nice.

Man she is such a tease posing in her lingerie ;)

Sorry shot was from one side only, the car cover is made of nylon, no idea where it's from a friend gave it to me after he used it for his corvette.

They sleep in shifts since at least one of them is on the move all the time.

Summer residence, along with my DD, a new Fusion Titanium:

Noticed that after I posted, but it is nothing you can't see in a bikini either. Now you know why she is my beloved and my 986 is just a car though. :)

And somehow I work in there too...

How do you get your Boxster out of the garage? By remote control? :)

TO

My thoughts exactly!

:D

Bloody european garages are pathetic, eh? I live in large town / small city quite near the centre and rent a garage and they are silly small!

The bit of cardboard on the right protects the door against the wall. Procedure is use key to drop window and then slide in like a pro. If the door windows had frames, no idea how you'd do it!

Euro cars have gotten bigger in recent years, a lot of these garages must be near useless for bigger modern cars with window frames.

Never mind getting the car out, how does he get out of the car?:eek:

And here I thought my 3 car garage got cramped.

I see nipples.... lol

There are bigger mailboxes than this in Texas! :)

That's "letterboxes" to you Brits.

Cheers!

:D

Garages like that are about $1,000 a month to rent in central London.

I pay about $120 a month in Bath. And that's cheap for where it is. :(

I thought so too. But, no one is that much of a glutton for punishment ! :)

88 Mondial 3.2, 1 of 810 cabriolets produced by Ferrari world wide.
The best and only mid engine 4 seater ever produced. :)
It took me 2 months to do a full major service in my garage, but figured it all out.
She drives beautifully and can be a daily driver -np.

That's because there is no fighting allowed in that room:cheers:

Did someone say 'garage?' :)

If you guys can look past the coupe that's parked in it, I've got a garage that -- like with many of the ones in this thread -- is NOT enormous. But with a little thought and effort, you can fit a lot of DIY-ability into a small garage. (Especially if you can put your other cars somewhere else.) I do automotive work in it, and also some carpentry and metal fabrication.

I did all the work myself, including setting the tile and digging the pit for the lift. The total budget, including the floor, cabinets, benches and lift was less than $3,500. Everything in the place is second-hand, re-purposed or home-made.

Work benches that fold down from the wall:

I also made a website for the place: The 12-Gauge Garage (I promise you, this is not spam. I don't make any money off of the website and pay for it out of my own pocket.)

A website named Petrolicious made a video about the garage and my car:

One Car To Do It All

And yes, a video just about the lift I put in:

My Garage Lift

Is it always this clean? No. Not by a long shot.

But it does go back to clean very quickly -- that's the real accomplishment of it, I think. I finally took the time to work out a place for everything to go when It's not being used.

In practice, it makes a huge difference not having to spend so much time looking for things you've misplaced. I spent years doing that. :mad:

Great job Jack. I want that lift for my garage, awesome!

Jack,

Would you kindly take a dustpan and brush to that garage. It's a mess !

Haven't seen a rotary phone in a while
