My garage @ home with the parents...



Tool box was free, and is nearly empty, its getting fuller by the week though.

O, and latest project, resetting the odometer in my M3 instrument cluster for when the swap is done. HAHAHAHA...

dont give me shit for it either, the cars not going anywhere.

UGH, that made me hard!

Mine is in process, just got most of the shop done this summer. It sits behind my 2 car garage.

That is where dreams are made... seriously..

I need to get the hell out of the greater Los Angeles area, buy a farm w/ a barn.

^^word. i barely have half a garage, cant even pull my car in. i have resorted to using my mechanic firends garage which has every tool ever imaginalble for cars, but no lift or air-tools:(

[Toms73NovaSS]

air-tools:(

Did someone say air?



I do finally have the garage insulated and heated and moved most of my stuff into the new shop.

This shop has been my dream for a looooong time. I am a bit older than most on this board (40), but I have chosen to drive older cars because I like to maintain and modify them.

My 325es is my daily driver. How many 40 year olds do you know that drive a 22 year old daily driver? (That have a decent job)

I have chosen to put my money into the garage rather than a new car. After is all said and done I could have easily bought a new car for the cost of the garage. Also, have a great wife who puts up with my car hobby and I almost always around the house so she knows where I am ;).

I'm right there with you Tom. Only a few years younger but same boat. Lucky to have a great wife that not only understands but also likes to drive the older cars. We'll never have a car payment again and I just smile when people ask why I drive an old car as they are leaning out the window of their $40k suburban.

I'm starting my new garage next year with plans for a lift and a full room above to be used as a game room and home theater. It's amazing how much extra money you can save when you don't have a couple payments hanging out there.
