Default Garage Project Making Progress

I already got the lift 4 weeks ago. The storage/cabinet furniture was delivered last sat. Purchased a couple of high output fans, pretty slick flouresecent worklighting and lots of the misc tools and stuff.

Most important, the floor tiles are being fedexed/home delievery today and I should have them Friday or Sat. I still have a few things coming for decoration, like the Corvette Racing banner and a pretty nice Corvette banner from Midamerica. But this sat I'll resume the main project with the tiles and I hope to have the garage transformation complete no later than Memorial day.

For all you Torch RED lovers, you are going to like this.
