Re: Most cool garage! (79yellowlt1)
nice....but what use is that lift? All you could use it for is changing oil or such. Real drive up lifts have a sub lift that will lift the car off the drive up lift. Oh well...must just be for looks...

The "custom" w/63 rear window is made by Avelate and can be had here:

For a real laugh, check out their '53 kit. Looks like a new T-Bird...:U

Re: Most cool garage! (79yellowlt1)
These are all gorgeous garages. I remember seeing them, and more in the issue of Corvette Magazine from about 2 months ago. The same issue also has the '63 mod, or whatever you are calling it on the cover, but in yellow. For those of you that do not know, Corvette Magazine is a new magazine that came out late in '02. I was lucky enough to catch the first issue. I still buy mine on the newstand every month. The only place I have ever seen it on sale is at the Amaco station. Look for it there, you will probably find it. Its actually a very good magazine for its age. And it doesnt fall apart after a few days as Hot Rod and Corvette Fever do. I believe the publisher previously worked for Hot Rod or something like that. Go pick it up, its definately worth the few bucks.

Re: Most cool garage! (SanDiegoPaul)
The ideal Garage would contain: as copied from Car Craft Mag. Car Crafters Crib Top 10 list. I thought it was funny so here goes:
1. A climate controlled garage
2. Attached space for engine building/machine shop
3. Parking for dualie and a 34-foot enclosed fifth wheel trailer
4. 100-foot concrete driveway for "breaking in new slicks"
5. Staging lights and christmas Tree for practicing reaction times
6. A lift
7. Chain hoist for engine swaps
8. 200-amp electric service
9. Deaf neighbors
10. Some sort of house with a working toilet

Speaking from the land where you'd be lucky just to get a Vette into an average size garage, let alone do any work on it :( I'm sooo envious!

Re: Most cool garage! (79yellowlt1)
These are a little clean and specialized for me. He must wash the tires off before pulling in. My garage is the all purpose mess room. Cars, Motorcycles, Spray Paint, Sheetrock, lumber firewood, Chainsaws, you name it it gets done out there. :smash: I think I will stick with the concrete floor.

Re: Most cool garage! (adamdinat)
I think this is a really nice garage. It is a two car garage that has given me some ideas. Mine will never be like this but I am gonna use some of their ideas in mine. Oh yeah, they have really nice cars too. I met Tracey at Corvette Expo in Knoxville last fall. Really nice gal.
