Utah997, I just found your build - absolutely amazing. Beautiful attention to detail, really really excellent work. The sliding bookcase is sweet too, I've always wanted one. I wish you hadn't removed all the posts earlier in the thread, but I understand the concern for privacy and more so security. Thank you for posting what you did, your garage/bunker is truly amazing.
love it. my 0.02 : check out http://www.8020.net/ for some better track and motion control items. we use this stuff for all the automation systems at work. NYC Stagehand on broadway...major theatrical systems.

Man... this build is still alive.
Best thread on the old Garage Journal.

I'm scared.
I'm guesstimating if you include *everything* including finishing the theater, gym etc, etc... down to the bookcase. Prolly in the $400k range. <cringe>
Just realized I hadn't updated you guys with the theater pics. A few of you have asked for them.. here you go.
(please keep in mind this is 100% done yet, still need sconces on the walls, and where the mini fridge is, I will be building a candy counter etc.. we also still have some additional sound paneling to put up eventually)
I spend alot more time down here than I thought I would..

Going on a year+ now... got into it w/ Jersey Jay and he banned me, then I got it reduced to a 1 week vacation. But after that I was on the shitlist. Then I posted a link to a pron site on one of my own threads in OT as a joke. I got a few PMs instantly to remove the link as the mods would go nuts. Well before I could click edit the post was edited for me and I got perma-banned. I finally begged my way back on in early 2009 via Savewave so I could sell a few cars and lots of parts... he told me I could only post in the F/S section. Well slowly I started posting outside of it and they said/did nothing. 8 months later I go to log in and find that I'm re perma-banned. Now Jim (savewave) won't return my emails.
Oh well

You should start a "Free Cobra4B" thread for me I just bought a "new" 2003 vert and have a 2001 targa Z06 to sell. CF comes in mighty handy for buying/selling!

Nicola and I read through this thread again last night, and just want to say, what an awesome awesome way to use space, and create space.
She has already told me that when we move to the next house I am not to start digging .....

absolutely amazing! The home theater is beautiful! I think you should have a couch on the bottom floor so that you can snuggle with someone to watch the movie.
This is seriously amazing, your friends must be in awe! I know that i am! At first i thought your entire garage was going to be underground, with grass on top. But, this is just as cool. I hope you get a really big toolbox, and a nice big air compressor.
With the cars that you have though, i would venture to guess that you dont work on them yourself.

Wow! Just stumbled on your build and am amazed! Great job! Thought about putting a tunnel between my house and my father's home but all my friends said I was an idiot. Instead added on to my house. Wife is glad I didn't see your build before we started. Thanks for sharing.
I bet she is..
