Went out and took the cover off my baby. Gave it a sponge bath, detailed it and ran it for an hour. Wondering where you keep your teener. Garage, outside, storage or like me out in the barn (soon to be on a pedestal in the garage). I got it bad, don't I.

Good question, mine is in the driveway, underwraps. It better be in the garage after this weekend. Scott should be done (damit he better be done) with the construction on the loft so she can go back to the garage. Can you tell I get a little bitchy when I have to leave her outside.
Hope yours is in the garage,

Mine ......in the garage .....still in pieces!!! Hopefully this summer it will be painted, rather that in primer like it has been for the last 2 years. Then the fun starts .......getting it back together!!

Levi, nice shop. Looks like everybody here has adequate space to work. Seen so many pictures of decked out garages. We all do what we can with what we have. Nice thing is teeners don't take up much space. But they do give us a great deal of satisfaction/aggravation.

Both under car covers in the driveway. Too much crap in the garage to put one in there. One of these days I will clear it out. The yellow one is sold and will be leaving soon but I still keep it covered so it doesnt get as dirty. Yellow show dirt really well. and the bugs like to shit on it too. I have the same problem with my new truck. That is why the Chalon will be Charcoal Gray. Its in primer now but I still keep it covered. No sense letting the dirt build up on the primer.

In the garage, as a condition of the collector car insurance. Although I'm not worried that they're gonna send someone out from their office in New Jersey to verify that.

Mine will spend the next 2 months in the garage. I just got it back from the body shop and have to put in a new interior and a 5-lug conversion (ignore the current rims!). This car was saved from a 6-year stint setting outside in the desert!
Can't wait to get it on the road!

My teener spent several years in a friend's garage, and several more in my mum's garage. These days it is parked under a cover in the warehouse at work. Lots of space, not too many electrical outlets, and I live with the fear that one of the guys will one day drop a skid on it.
Inside, if you can do it, is the only way to go in the Great White North.

Mine used to be in my parent's driveway, when I lived in an apt building.
Now it's in my garage, it was the #1 priority for my townhouse to have a garage when I went house shopping. My next house will have to have at least a large 2 car garage, or the ability to build a separate garage. Priorities, it's all about priorities

It's currently at my mechanic's, outside with a cover. It's waiting parts so he can put in the new engine. Once it comes home (soon I hope), it will go into the garage and my practical car will go into the new leanto I'm having built.

Right now its in the parking lot at work. But, during rainy,wet weather it spends the nights in the garage. I alos have to use a dust cover to keep our cat's paw prints off the paint. The top of the car is perfect for looking out the window. Damn cat. I'd get rid on him, but he's big enough to eat coyotes.

Mine is sitting in the garage with a fresh coat of POR-15 drying. It won't be moing under its own power for a while though. I'm still several months from completion.
It will be a 1974 chassis (silver) with a 1975 1.8 from my previous 914, and pretty much stock otherwise. The first set of upgrades will be in the suspension though.

Normally mine is out on the driveway behind Mom's Eurovan Camper, which gets the carport space. We park based upon who is leaving first in the morning (besides keeping Mom out of the snow in winter).
This is my baby right now. The frozen-up engine is on the ground waiting for me to remove the FI and sheet metal so I can move them to the long-block that I'm building. It's a slow process because I'm spreading out the expenses. It will probably be August before she's back on the road.

Sorry about the angle. We had bad thunderstorms roll through and it blew the garage over!
Actually my wife took the picture. She has this thing about turning the camera on end, and I was just plain too tired to reformat it.

Mine's sitting in my 3200 sq ft shop.
Few years back, wife wanted to move out to the country. We go see this place, and the first thing I see is the 40x80 shop building. House coulda been a smodlering heap of rubble for all I cared, WE WAS MOVIN"!!!!!!
Bad news is old girl is just sitting there. After a very nice drive at lunch the other day, during which I got a nod of affirmation from a guy in a really sweat new Carrera, apparently my baby got a little too excited and burned up a set of points, cuz it ran like shit all the way home, and I haven't had time to check it out.
