Here are a few pics of a garage that belongs to a buddy of mine. This is not a business, but his home garage. :worship:
I took the snaps on two different occasions, that's why the cars differ in the photos.
It features a rolling overhead winch, and full pit under one of the bays, as well as a full washroom with hot water. He can get five cars in if he has to, but he also has another garage just for storage.
If you're like me and your hobby is working on cars, you'd love his place.

Holy Crap! I'm so jealous of 65gtfastback's buddy. There's no reason to leave the garage. I guess all you need to complete the place is a wet bar and you're set.
Hey SRQ05GT, is that real ceramic tile? Wow. :worship:
That would not work in the North for sure.

Cool '63 Falcondude! Still got it?

The red'66 coupe is a project that he is building. It will have a full 5.0 drive train with EFI when it's done in the spring.
The '70 sportroof is a 351 Cleveland car with it's original Grabber Blue paint.
The white '69 is a fully restored Mach 1 351 Windsor.
The white 68 is an original restored 428 Cobra Jet that he still takes to the track from time to time. He has the correct hood for it etc... for shows.
He also owns several other cool Fords, but the Shelby belongs to an other friend, and the '65 (with '66 cap ) is mine.

I know it's dark and at a bad angle but winter is raging here and the garage door is frozen shut at the moment. :bang:

Cool? No.
Unique? Not really.
Safe? Yep. I am the only one with access to the building.

She does share the stable with an old Chevy...

I like that privacy screen idea. Good way to keep other, lesser cars from becoming jealous and inducing door dings and other vengeful damage.

Hey Paul,
My 63 Falcon Sprint was my first classic car. Unfortunately, I sold that and my daily driver 65 Mercury Comet Caliente 2Dr Hardtop before I moved from Portland OR to Wisconsin about 2.5 years ago. Although I miss the old girls, selling them allowed me to buy the 06 GT Mustang. FalconDude

That looks like a quanset (sp?) hut. You must have a considerable amount of land, cause it looks pretty big. Love the pict of your two babies. How do you decide what to drive? or is the 65 only for show?
