Lift for sure. Some sort of wash basin/parts washer for cleaning up dirty/greasy/oily parts. And you definitely NEED a good stereo, so much easier to work on things with tunes playing imo.

Beer fridge and a lift.

This. Although a multi-keg keg-o-rator would be even better.

Vintage gas pump outside for a night light!

Hey all, I was hoping to get some advice from the hive-mind that is r3v!

I may be tearing down my garage and building a new one. I've got an 800 square foot limit and want to build an apartment over it as well, so I'm thinking that the garage itself will be pretty small, enough for my e30, motorcycles, a workbench, and my drumset (just the essentials, right?).

That said, my question for you guys is if you had approx 17x17 to work with (or any size, whatever, really), what stuff would you do to your garage? What would your ultimate garage be? Cosmetic things are welcome, features are too, anything that would make it a killer place to get ish done.

Here are my ideas so far (and I'll update this as suggestions come in):

• Sink
• Wood floor or stained concrete
• Good overhead lights
• Drain in floor/grate outside of main entry
• Insulated door
• Heated floor
• Exposed beam roof

Other Suggestions:

• Minifridge
• Lift
• Stripper pole
• Old gas pump for outdoor light
• Stereo
• Compressor/hoses in good spots
• Bright floor to be able to see parts. All white everything
• Bunker
• Ceiling power lines
• Glass Block
• Chocolate Milk Fountain
