Let's See Your Garages!

I recently bought a small house in DeBary (Central Florida) and have been busy remodeling the place. It only has a one-car garage, but in order to maximize storage, I installed metal shelving I had saved for years. The best way to utilize available space is to go vertical, but you need good quality shelves to do so.
First thing was to epoxy the garage floor.
Followed by the shelving.
A quick trip to Lowe's yielded far more than the electrical supplies we went there for. They had a sale on toolboxes and, since one of the rolling carts had a dented drawer, they offered me an additional $100 off. So I bought the whole shebang for under $500. SCORE!
And now I have PLENTY of storage space plus a heck of a toolbox. Just have to get organized and move my '76 to its new digs next week!

Did you get the shelving at Lowe's? Looks very sturdy. What was the brand and approx. cost of one of the tall shelving units. Just built a 24 X 30 garage and sorely need shelving/storage.

A quick Google search shows that Global Industries sells identical units.

Zzzzzzzz...All tucked away until spring! I have big plans for this garage in the future - lots of space and will snag some of your ideas! We don't see much snow in Alabama but when it snows it's a mess!

One of the garages i rented, about 1971 i would think, fresh out of the service, my grandfather gave me his 47 HI..
Had to decide which side of the vehicle to work on so as to open which door, really tight fit...
Life was so much simpler then....

Slow day at work gave me the chance to go through the entire thread again. Some amazing garages and collections

Here's a couple views of one side of my garage, The Hot Rod Grille. One pic shows the C3 with the hard top. The other view shows the soft top.
