Happiness is...
a full garage! :yesnod:
Your average 2 1/2 car detached garage:
Upon closer inspection something looks funny to the left of that truck:
MY GOD! It's corvette all warm and snuggly in its blanky.
Thought I would try posting some test pics and show everyone my garage full of vehicles. I should have organized it to fit all three during the winter. I usually back the truck up next to vette giving full access to the driver side doors of the truck and formula. Thinking of buying a set of jack up rollers to move the vette in and out but will probably just park the truck outside since I like drive the fun cars as much as possible. Now I could use a co-pilot or two. :reddevil

I have a 2 car garage and there is no way to get 2 cars in it. You have done excellent to get 3 cars in your garage.

Re: Happiness is... (1bad69)

Jvette
Maybe I'll brake torq the formula and snap a pic or two. :)
Eddie
Thanks! When I first moved in my vette was pretty much in the same spot but I had a pile of stuff I tore out of the house about as big as the truck taking up the other side. Good thing I have no wife or kids to take up precious work space. :D

Re: Happiness is... (SmokedTires)
I actual have room to get beside the vette and garage wall and also on the same for the formula. I think the key is that they are all pretty narrow vehicles. Now if I still had my 73 Olds Regency 98 I might not be able to more than it in there, what a boat! Behind the vette I put up a 4' x 8' shelf about 6', high enough to get my cherry picker under and also a 3' x 8' shelf about 5' off the ground in front of the formula with a 9' work bench inbetween em. It is a pretty big garage but it is not built very well and I worry about the pitch and lack of support. One 4' snow fall and I might be looking for 3 new vehicles. :eek:
