Garages - Customs and Restos

[Fishcop]

Paul, how new was your slab when you applied the paint?

Great garages and advice by the way - keep 'em coming!

[OBRUT]

here's my new garage - which has been designed to allow a lift. we only moved back in to the house a couple of weeks ago after a monster reno' so not really sorted wrt storage etc.

one of the cool aspects is the lighting: 2 full length skylights; 4 central flouros for everyday use; and 8 flouros above each bay for wrenching.

given i live in inner-city latte-land (where most punters park on the street), a double garage is a rarity/nice bonus.

here's a better shot of the dynotiles. i thought chequered flag would be too bogan...

the hound seems to like the setup too.

cracking effort Ryan, it looks great.

Seems you 300C numberplate is 'highly reflective'! Must be those NSW number plates!

[Fishcop]

Nice Ryan! After visiting my brother's new place in Darlinghurst I appreciate just how limited parking is...

I'm inner city Brisbane, but it's just not a dense as Sydney

[Fishcop]

Oops - double post

[OBRUT]

thanks guys

alex - probably a good thing as MY906 plates on a 300C offends the purists...

john - sorry i missed you the other week at the trinity bar. my place is only 2 minutes away but i had a clash and had to go early.

Ryan, impressive ceiling height, what is it? also nice to have so much natural light streaming into the garage, a luxury I won't have in the basement garage

[CamBiscuit]

Feeling rather jealous at present.... Nice work guys

Mine (when it is eventually built) will be air conditioned for reasons of necessity!

the ceiling height is about 3.3m at the low end and about 3.9m at the high end. give me a call if you want to check it out.

i also have a good garage book with some great tips on power (i've put a double outlet every meter on each wall - but forgot to do a central roof mounted outlet...) and lighting etc. the architect laughed when she saw my lighting plan...

[OBRUT]

stewart - is there a facel vega in there?

[John S]

Ryan, yes thanks I'd like to have a look, I'll give you a call.

[Fishcop]

Ryan, what's the garage book? Would like to check it out...

Visited this joint last weekend......no Porkers due to the owners predilections, but a brilliant garage nonetheless.

Prize of a cold glass of beer offered to one that can name the steeds present (and these are only p a r t of the collection).

Cheers

Stewart.

That's easy!

I'll leave the Benetton OHOS to someone else, I'm not a big beer fan. Do I get a bottle of Krug for naming the chassis numbers of the Latin iron?

Regards,

Carl.
