Our C5's garage is being built as we speak. Its the smaller garage on the left side of the pic and measures 16' X 24' on the inside. As the plans call for a copper cupola for the roof of the Corvette garage, my wife has dubbed it the Corvette chapel.

Default Still under construction...

To finish my 48 Chevy Pu fram off and give a shelter for my C5.

Everything is done by myself. The diameter of the stones is 9,5 inches,
to keep it warm in the winter. Its well insulate.

Say bye to the garden:


The first stones...




The gates are installed.


Something funny on the roof.


Now, its to cold to continue the work. ****.

My garage/cars was recently on a TV show. If you go over to the Regional Northeast forum and search for "Capevettes on Cruising New England" you will see a 3 part video. Someone here could probably link it. Sold the C4 since the show and bought a C5.

Actually it pops up here if you do the search.

You could probably buy a C5 with all of those cans if you took them to Michigan
