Well, not me, but I did move my Craftsman power mower out of the garage so I wouldn't run over it. Surely that must count for something.

My car hasn't seen an attached garage until last week and all that I've added to it so far has been a Corvette Parking Only sign, but I think it's a good start.

Default I'm working on the Vette....

I'm still working on getting the Vette. I'm selling off my mustang, but this is what my garage looks like. I did this about a year or so ago.

I didn’t relies it was a competition but with that being said my good friend Don the gray haired dude next to myself and the captain would be miles ahead of the competition. A year ago he did a 6 month addition to his garage so he could have partys in it every Friday night. He wanted to kick the new expanded garage off with a bang so he had a garage grand opening party with about 50 hotrodders and harley riders showing up. It was a tux and gowns event. He had the whole thing catered and sent limos to pick everyone up every detail was looked after rite down to the doorman, Profession photographer and cocktail waitresses. Now if someone one can out do this I would love to hear about and even more so see the pictures.
