I'll trade garages with ya.....mine has some really cool old furniture in it >:D ;D.....that is one sweet set-up you've got there!
 
I'm Having trouble diciding if I hate you or wanting to be your best friend.. lol.. Nice cars, but the av sleeps outside the wifes van, my project truck, and my trofeo get the garage.
 
Let's see,

table saw, turkey fryer, tool chest, compressor,,,blah, blah. :-[
Makes me sad when I see yours all full of some very nice rides.

Methinks you might like yellow (y)
 
My Av hangs with a 2002 Sebring Silver Z28. And Thanks to eBay, I just sold my 1968 El Camino. So, there is an empty spot now.

My Av's stable mate is a 2001 2 door accord V6.

You're garage makes me _____ with envy! ;D

Are you planning to race that as well as the C5?

my av will make yours jealous. it has a whole 2 1/2 car garage to itself, not having to compete for affection. ;) i like your color scheme and that camaro is o so sweet.
 
The Av shares space with a 1979 MG Midget in BRG and the wife's '02 Maxima. And, yes, the MG darn near fits in th Av's bed (bed 50" wide, MG 47" wide)! ;D
 
2004 Orange Pontiac Grand Prix. Not exactly my most favorite car in the last 4 I have owned. No problems with it, but the lack of some options are annoying.

No self dimming mirror, no auto climate controls and no seat memory are available on any model. I don't think I will be keeping it for very long. :6:
 
I am not allowed to park in the garage. I have been outcast to the shed with the:

94 Extended cab 8' bed Silverado ( Daem that's a long one )
97 Extended cab S-10
Suzuki 250 4wd 4 wheeler + trailer
Yamahahahaha125
Honda 400
Lawn tractor
Tiller
Chipper
compressor, tools, hunting stuff , 3d animals, fishin stuff etc.
 
02 z71
04 S4
03 A4 Cabrio
01 Aprillia Pegaso
98 Suzuki Dr350
00 Boxer

The AV has to sleep outside.

BB, I hope you got what you wanted for your 68', I did a lot of surf'n on ebay looking for the Camaro.

John, The C5 will still be the choice for the track while the Camaro will see mostly light duty.

BB, I will have to learn how to do webshots like Bobith4's nice luxo trucks are on. Let me see if I can get a couple of others posted though.

Graphx, I know what you mean about the size of your MG. I used to have 3 914's sideways in the bay where the 69 is now.

IBOHUNT, that's quite the shed you've got!
 
I if put avy in garage I would not be able to open doors hehehe

SO the garage houses tool chest and old desk and bikes and table saw and coumpound miter saw on stand and large shop vacuum and cabinets holding bunches of detail supplies and washer & dryer and fridge and broken fridge and broken TV and golf clubs and file cabinets and paint and wood trim and framing wood and air compressor and shelves holding all kinds a crap and table and etc etc etc
 
Nice pics, thanks.

I had a 73 Cuda that was totaled years ago. These pics make me lust for another. I like the yellow theme.


p.s. Your boyfriend is cute.

As you can see, I like to keep the garage clean. I am planning to install several Mills Pride C1 cabinets from Home Depot and I am planning to resurface with black and white tile flooring made by http://www.racedeck.com/shop.htm

Now that gives me a serious case of GARAGE ENVY- I say that is my dream space.
I have a 2600 Sq Ft home, and a 600 Sq ft garage.
I always tell my wife that it should be the other way around.
A small bedroom- a decent kitchen adn livingarea adn 2 nice baths,
and a super garage.
My current is wired for Phone, Cable adn Cat-V cable (Garage that is ). It shares space for my 04 Av adn my wifes 02 Cavilier Z24.

Next home will be a three car bay-

BTW, Realestate figures for 2003 show that more adn more folks are including oversized (2-1/2 or larger) areas on new home sales- it is not all but it is increasingly more and more standard for 3 car units...

COOL

It's just a really nice "driver" new paint, new interior, restored, rebuilt motor, etc. not numbers matching or a Big Block either. The insurance appraisal was $21,500. A BB engine would add another $10k to the price and numbers matching another $10k, combine that with a low miles car and I've seen 396 X66 cars sell for $60k. a 69 Z28, numbers matching, low miles, perfect car sold last week at the Barrett-Jackson auction for $122k :eek:

Mine is a nice car but not one that you have spent so much on that you can't drive it.
