Please indulge me (new garage)

[kilodawg]

I've waited half a year to be able to take this picture. It's not done yet but the big milestone came today when they all moved in (at least until after the Holiday's when the floor goes down).

Simply friggin awesome!

Hey, keep that oil off the floor if you're planning on epoxy or even tile. Keep the progress pictues coming!

Hi great space ,im just building my own worshop setup for my 911sc, what product do u plan to use on the floor??

[daepp]

So it's true - they do all leak?

[EarlyPorsche]

My 997 doesn't leak but my 912/911 leaves a tiny drop from the chain housing. Its a beautiful leak though.

[kilodawg]

Actually the 993 and Carrera never leak. The 73 just a drop now and then. I'm just being careful until the floor goes down. Part of it is just leftover from the days when I had my '74 that always leaked a bit.

I spent a lot of time reading on flooring types and basically fried my brain. So I'm probably going to go with the Sherwin Williams expoxy system since my painting contractor has done numerous floors with the stuff, likes the way it works and hasn't had any complaints.

::sniff, sniff:: That pic is so beautiful, it makes me want to cry!

You sure have a lot of duplexes there, but I think you may need more flourescent lights. I have a dual bulb 4 footer above each car.

I agree, you need more light! I found a light right above the garage door, close to the spring works well for working on the backend with the door closed.

If you miss your '74 I'll trade you for a few days for that cute red number....

I can beat that.

It's a little crowded in there!

I have the same. Good light output. I also have a 4 footer over the 'nook' area in my garage. Thinking of installing 4 more - one at each end of both cars. You can't have TOO MUCH lighting!

Looks great though. I only wish I had that many outlets and another bay for my daily driver...

Looks great! I love garages just about as much as porsches. Now get some porsche prints on those walls!

[kilodawg]

Hey guys I only had a small percentage of my lights on don't worry. I have 9 dual eight footers. For detailing I can use floor mounted portables if I need more. They still aren't all on in this picture but even so it was plenty bright enough for me to change out the front bumper seal on the '73 this evening.

[Larry_Ratcliff]

LOL Man you have to do something about the oil leaks other than stuffing wood in the rear

really sweet cars though.

[Lukesportsman]

Recent picture in a British Mag of a new Bentley parked with a Sterling Silver catch pan under the front. Old habits die hard......if anything leaks more oil than a 911 its a British Car.

[madmmac]

They don't leak, they are just "sportin wood".

[Wayne 962]

Nice collection!

[DaddyGlenn]

Very nice! I gotta see a shrink. I think I may be suffering from garage envy.

[911 in SC]

That's more like it! So did you install an air compressor while you were there? If so, where'd you put it and what are the logistics of it? Just curious! Not skeptical at all... I like it alot!

BTW, so the Crown Vic still sits outside?

Later,
Mike
