Default Garage Decorating Ideas

Hey guys, I bought a new house. I have a detached three car garage. All walls are brand new white painted sheetrock, a blank pallet so to say. I have two vettes and a 66 Corvair. I'm looking for ideas about decorating this garage. If you have any pictures of yours, I'd sure like to see them. Either post them here or you can email me at CW5Church@aol.com. Thanks for the help!

there was a post last week about a garage that was crazy
It was by far the best I have ever seen. The guy had a gt3 and a cayenne. Would love to give you a link, but of course again the search function does not work...sorry.
Wish we could get these technical problems worked out. Makes me want to hang out on z06vette.com

Mine is no where near as nice as the one in the link, but I put up some posters I gathered up from many of the events I have been to, have a couple of display cases full of promotional models, framed some pics of the Vettes I have had and finally put up the plaques and trophys won with my cars. Someday I would love to do something with the floor.

I'm sure there are many on here that have done up their garages to look very . Good luck with decorating your garage. It can be a lot of fun.

looks perfect except that it's "ONLY" a 3 car... maybe they have a 2 car attached for the everyday rides?
