I work in mine.The first time I spilled some oil on it I would go flying across the floor.I have nice cabinets in mine.I thought about painting the floor but I'm always dropping or banging on stuff.Welding spatter would melt anything made out of rubber.

Thanks for the compliments. It really means a lot when people like what I have done.
The tiles are VCT from Lowe's. Just like school tiles. The red were expensive, but the black and white were not so bad. So far, I have used floor wax and it looks good, but I would love to get my hands on one of those buffers and some heavy floor wax.
I don't do much in the garage anymore except clean and polish. I have a tray under the car for when I use cleaning fluids or work on the motor. I plan to do the Vintage air install in the garage, but will put down drop cloths.
I know the floor will get scuffs and stuff, but I will always have the pictures I took.
I rent a shop a few miles from the house where i do the heavy work.
Right now the 2000 shares the garage with the 72. The others stay at the shop.
The car was a blast to do. I did not fathom the response I would get on the Power Tour. I doubt Chip Foose gets much more attention with his cars than I did in that one. I hate to peel them off, but the stickers have to go.
I am working on the 2012 paint scheme now. I am thinking white with jestream blue sides, and a crystal red metallic stripe down the middle.
