Default My labor of love...


Everything was done by hand and would not have it any other way...

Only able to work on it on the weekends and a few evenings here and there when not tired after work...

My wife helped throughout the entire project and could not have done it without her...

I still have to add a few things...

Hope you enjoy the pics...




=====================================
Cars waiting to be parked inside...



Looking into the garage on the left side...


Overview, added diamond steel style lights...


Looking into the right side of garage...


Outside tools, hurricane shutters, car plates from states lived in, Jeff Gordon stuff, etc...


Car cleaning products and oil changing stuff...


TV, cabinet with added C6 logo, tools, Iraqi helmet I was able to bring back from OIF, toys, etc...


Rolled heavy white paint mixed with mud and let dry, painted over that with black paint and let dry, then sanded and then you have the white coming through the black paint. Cool effect...
Hand made C6 logo, name, etc and brake light on top of tool box...


Hung storage racking for extra stuff and added US Flag and Corvette Racing Flags to hide the containers...


2nd Top hung on wall, Corvette Banner, painted barrel, added C6 logo to frig, etc...


Wrapped hot water heater and added C6 logo...


Looking out the third garage bay and my favorite wall mounted vacuum...


Thanks for loooking ...
