Let's see where the magic happens *garage photos*

Realized I've never posted in here! I've had a lot of places in the last 4 years...
Before I graduated, home base was my parents driveway. If I was lucky, I could pull it into the garage every once in a while:
1st place of my own was a 10x20 foot single car garage that was more of a storage place for my wrecked car and some spare parts. Didn't have room for my tools, so I didn't get anything done in the year that I had it. Don't even have a picture because it sucked and I was never there.
Then I moved to a pretty large 2.5 car garage with decent security and outlets everywhere. It would've been awesome except it was expensive, far from home, the floor only had one level spot big enough for one car, flooded every time it rained, and the landlord wasn't great. There was always a massive puddle of water (and in the winter, ice) covering a good 20% of the floor... This picture was from moving in, it rained that night and ruined a bunch of stuff on the floor.
Got fed up with that and moved again. Now I've got a 2 car garage that's more affordable, has a level floor, and most importantly it's dry.
Each move has been progressively more difficult. First one was accomplished with a suburban in one trip. Second one was 5 trips with some help. Next time is probably going to require a box truck... if I move again it'll hopefully be to somewhere I own!

I know how that goes, my next move is gonna be with a semi truck... I'm not moving again until I build my own shop though. I'd love to be able to just walk out my door to work on cars instead of driving 20+ minutes.

That's the stuff of dreams right there

Merged with the old garage thread to keep it going. I like your bench set up and art gallery!
I appreciate it!

The reality of this still hasn't fully set in yet. Hoping to finish the portion of the garage that hasn't been insulated yet this spring. Lots of cleaning before the barn is more useable.
NICE! Lots of space!

Dream garage right there. What would be better than 3 e36s?

Maybe it's just me, but I'm having a really hard time visualizing this space. Is that garage front the barn on the back?
-
No e36 disrespect intended but given the space and the existing rides I'd vote for a two or four post lift as next step. Maybe more than one.
Hey if I'm going to be living vicariously through someone else's dream setup let's go big.
A lift is definitely in the works, a bit out though. The last e36 is a parts car and will be in the barn as soon as the ground dries up.

Any plans with the shell as it is rare to have a slicktop?
