A life long dream realized. All my tools and cars finally in one place. A 2 post and a 4 post. Start my long list of projects tomorrow. Still need to organize tools and plumb the air compressor, but we are close.

wow! Congratulations!
With that kind of shop, I can stay the entire year without out of town vacation and visiting any theme parks. Just eat out with family and just let friends come visit the shop.

Wow, congratulations!
Will this just be for your projects or will you be fixing cars for customers too?

Awesome!
I want to build a separate 2-car garage. Not so much for projects, just cars. It's easy to get car heavy and seemingly challenging to have space for all the toys.

I'm no mechanic so I can't work on others'. But a vette and a Ferrari will be on the lift next week and I'll help.

my son owns a blasting business and has a big track drill that will be at one end during the winter.

Very nice.
I have tried to live up to the rule:
Garage space >> house space
but have often failed.

Me too, but I am lucky to have a nice little 3,000 sq/ft car shop 25 min from home.
Congrats on the new shop, it looks awesome

@Tonyooc Where do you live in Fullerton that you could put a 4 or 5 car garage? I misspent my youth in that town. Skyline drive was a blast in the ‘60s…great driving road w/great make out spots…Nirvana.
Sorry for the hijack jfort, great looking shop. One word of caution…nature abhors a vacuum.

That is awesome! Even sharing space with the drill parked you still have room to work on a fleet. Very cool that you can share this with your son also, nothing better than that.

@jfort what sanding grit did you use on the floor? We are about to polish ours and apparently you can go 100 - 3000 grit.
