Just wanted to show the final finished room. I may still add a few things here and there but she's done for the most part. Been really busy throughout the Fall and Winter.

Nice job Andy. Have you looked into the lift yet? I put one in last spring and really love it. I have a 10foot ceiling and can lift the Vette up so the bottom of the rails are 5 foot off the floor. I have to lower it a bit when I plan on using the jack to work on the car or I take a chance of hitting the hood on the open garage door.

Haven't looked into the lift yet. Might be in the future,
thanks for the compliments. Time to get to work on my engine bay.

Looks like you have a Premier Classic Corvette and Bench-Racing Emporium there, Andy. The garage turned out great!

You have collected quite a few pieces of Corvette memorabilia and they highlight your car well. I haven't seen that black crossed flags banner before. I know it's got the earlier 2-word version of Stingray but where'd you find that? Is it available from anyone we know? Makes a great addition.

Enjoy the new digs. We are and thanks for sharing.

Dustup7T2,

Thanks for the comps. A friend of ours decorated the interior as a gift and I don't know exactly where everything came from. I know some things were purchased off ebay, some from corvette central and everywhere in between.

I do plan to put DSL, phones and a flat screen out there eventually.
