I wanted to post some updated pics of my garage project. Last summer I gutted the 75 y/o structure which was a 2 car garage. I did all of the work myelf from start to finish. We also had the driveway ripped out and pavers set. This summer we have been working on the backyard. I refaced the garage and more pavers!!! It's all coming togeather. I also added a new beast to the garage. I sold my Speed Yellow C2 a few months ago. The garage did not sit empty for more then a week! Anyway enjoy the pics. If you have any questions let me know.

looks like it has a nice cozy feel in there... kinda needs a fireplace burning in the background.. that would top off the look nicely.

It looks good!:thumbup:


I remember when you were working on it and I was wondering how the grass would look in the pavers around the fountain. After a year it looks like it filled in well, from an angle it appears to be solid lawn until you're up close and can see the paver in between.

Same tiles Black and white, the dark grey tiles border the entire garage and under the car. It stays cleaner looking longer that way.

Sandoval, you should think about making a wheel cart for your wheels. Take a piece of particle board and cut a circle the size of the wheels and mount 4 casters on the bottom. Stack the wheels on top put a wheel cover over it and your good to go. Just an idea for you.

The garage/house is beautiful, you really have an eye for design. Thanks for sharing!:thumbup:

I would say your place qualifies for the Garage Olympics, 2-car class. The rest of the house and garden isn't bad either.

Cabinets are Stackon sold at/on sears/sears.com I ordered all of them on an online sale and had them delivered to my local store. No shipping. They do go on sale often. I love them a great middle of the line cabinet. They do NOT feel cheap, they will take a licking.

Sandoval, what cover do you have on the car? I've been looking for one that fits my Boxster tight like that. I have the basic indoor cover from Porsche but it is looking pretty worn.

Yours looks like an OE but I've never seen one with the PORSCHE lettering on the back and the model on the front. Is that a custom you added? It looks really nice.

Bhayes Are you reffering to my 1:18 GT3 model Collection?

Patrick it is a Euro Tequipment indoor car cover. I don't know if the 986 has one. But here is the 987 Cover. It should fit well.

Thanks! I'll contact Eric to see if it will fit 986's.

Looks like we share the same passion for Porsche! :) This pic is a little old, I have about 45 now.

Love your garage and car. My boss had a 996 Turbo and traded it for a CL55 AMG.

He's now waiting for his 997 Turbo to arrive. It's supposed to be a monster !!:shocking: :drool:

I have a lowly Supercharged Z06.:bounce:

Thanks! I love the TT it's a wild ride!!! not sure if I could go to a CL55 though... However the 997 is a step in the right directing :) My father was a Vette guy for years. This past year he converted to German he also has a Porsche in the garage!!!
