Thanks guys!

Neat that it was on TV! I'm glad Moduline is getting some exposure.. great cabinets/company.

Coolest garage on the forum.

They have a couple of places like this in the Houston area, but they're not close to my home or work. I'm hoping they continue to expand. It's a great idea for guys who don't have a ton of home garage space or even for people who lease their homes.

I think you're on the Corvette Forum as well. I remember the screen name and Matrix avatar.

Thanks much..

It made perfect sense for us.. we needed more space, but didn't want to change our home to get it. Solution = garage condo.

Yeah, that's me. I've been on the Corvette Forum for a while now. Good memory!

Take it easy.

Just updated the build thread:

Factory Five has 90 miles on it.. not much time to drive it lately as we just moved and have been digging out from that. I was hoping to have time to really shake her down before winter, but that's getting less likely.

They have a monthly cars and coffee gathering at the Motorplex during the summer months, and most of the owners have their garages open for viewing - there are all kinds of cars and projects to see, from muscle cars to antiques to exotics. I'd recommend a visit for anyone who happens to be in the Minneapolis area on the right weekends.

I just built a 48x44x16 with scissor truss to give me 21' center height.... I'm definitely doing a loft across the back. 18x44.... Home Office on one end and rec room/game room bar etc on the other

http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/s...ght=93L%233008

Thanks for sharing your garage. Its nice to see exactly what I'm looking for and will use the stair design. Like the treads and diamond plate.

They have already far, far surpassed the relatively simple place we built-out. One guy has full A/C system/furnace, washer/dryer, and his upstairs looks like it belongs at the Four Seasons - including Sub Z fridge and Viking range. Craziness.

Thanks guys!

Whitetrash1: no long term parking is allowed 'outside' the garages, but on a day to day basis, lots of guys are parking in front of their places.

My main project lately is our 15 month old son.

I saw that car in the lower left corner of the magazine cover when I was out to the Motorplex a couple weeks ago:
