Don't take any advice from a guy that has a car cover for a garage
Thanks Tony....That project will be down the road after I recover from the carport expense...If it were just a conventional carport it wouldnt be bad...but wifey wants the fru-fru look (Victorian pillars, mouldings, arbor, beadboard ceiling, etc)..so that drives the cost up...
Here's a daytime pic of the SSR garage....(wifey just took down the window boxes)

Here's a better shot of the 24x24 garage that the carport will attatch to.....There's a 24x10ft concrete pad behind that fence for my car trailer...


Here's one of the back porch and 3/4 bath we built back in 2002...The carport will have these pillars and a smaller version of the railing around the top......

Here is part of mine, and yes I have a "thing" about dark red. At one time my 51 Chevy truck and even the lawn tractor were "dark red".

Here are a few of mine. I finished up recently since the pictures and added some white base board trim all around and had a 75,000 BTU overhead garage furnace installed.

I got my BFG banners on Ebay. I did a search for BF Goodrich, and there are none on there right now. I got them years ago. Maybe hard to get now...? They used to be on there years ago.

I think that Illmac's Z06 flag you can get on Ebay also. Do a search on ebay for "corvette banner", and "corvette flag" and "corvette poster". You will find many different styles.

Hope this helps

Here's a link to my garage build. Going on 18 months for the total project now (read the thread and you'll understand)

http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=12234

Inside isn't finished yet, I still have to finish hanging up the neon signs, have the cabinets and workbench installed, and put up my diamond plate baseboard.

Here's a couple pics...

Just after the epoxy was put down...
