i work on my 914 in a parking lot in front of my apartment. neighbors love when it's on jackstands.


Nathan, if you saw what I pay for the house that's attached to that 2 car garage, you'd not be complaining. I'll bet you could rent 10 apartments for the total outlay (mortgage, taxes, insurance), and I can't call a super to fix my plumbing problems (for free). There has to be SOME compensation for all that dosh... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

In the 3 car attached heated garage (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Life is good. Oh, and my office is above the garage. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Got to love that 14 stair step commute (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

900 sq ft Heated 3 car garage with a lift. It will have central heat and AC next summer.

Yep..love standing up to do a valve adjustment. Plus the lift makes dropping a motor a breeze..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)

I have a 2 car garage that with all my junk in it, holds one car. The only time it is heated is when I turn on my little space heater. Lately, that has been daily. The heater barely keeps it warm on some days and cooks you out others. Soon I will pull my car out and clean everything out and then put the car back in. Where it belongs.

Attached 2 car garage. Use a 50K BTU kerosene heater w/thermostat in the winter. No AC. The heater allows me to wash my cars in the garage during the winter. My wife hates the ice slicks on the driveway in the winter when washing cars, but then again I'm the only one on the block with clean cars in the winter. My black Audi A6 looks like crap after a snow storm so washing it is a must.

28' X 34' X 10' heated slab, 2" X 6" walls, 1/2 story for storage. I built it. I cut every one of the cedar shakes on the gable. Ya, I know.. I can't leave anything alone! BTW:

Two-car carport for me. Sometimes I think of closing it in, but can't bring myself to do it. The house is a "mid-century classic" built in '55 and is something of a time-capsul. Here it is clean. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

My working place is a 2 car garage in Bartlett, TN where it 's always too hot in the Summer even with a ceiling fan and too cold in the Winter even when I can borrow my wife's ear muffs. Thanks for sharing your work place info.
1975 1.8 FI and a very cold concrete floor today.
