    here's my chopped and sectioned Fred Meyer special

    I see plenty of work space, you can walk all the way around the car and get the hood open too!

    When I first started building hemis, availability of parts wasen't that good, sometimes an engine would be apart for a year or two waiting for a part. I was amazed only buicknailhead got it. I was hopeing more slobs would post pictures past and present. As far as cleaning...well I've already hauled two truck loads to the dump and now I find I needed some of it s---! more pictures less criticism please.

    BEATIFUL! you could build anything out of there,and then theres practical aspects like the plastic bucket hanging to keep you from getting whacked in the head with an oily hoist chain. now I want to see your car, please

    i have to be the most anal in the garage...while I dont do any serious wrenching, rebuilding motors, etc. its mainly bike stuff/motors, etc. etc.

    i used to share a garage with dad....lets put it this way...there is a vaccuum in the garage.

    There is an MG Midget inside the plywood box with parts strung all over the place, including inside the house. I haven't been able to get to it for some time and frankly, I've lost interest in it. There is a front-engined dragster chassis hanging from the ceiling which I haven't lost interest in, but haven't been able to work on either, and for more reasons than the garage. Now I want to build a HA/GR. You may see that sooner than any of the other projects. Who knows.

    Thanks for noticing the bucket. It's there for exactly the reason you said.

    With a garage that is just 2' wider than my car I can't afford to be too messy with my shit. It all gets piled up at the other end though, as I have 5' for room that end. It's a pain in the ass having to move the car over every time I need to work on the other side :(

    If you don't have to walk sideways through your garage, then you don't have enough stuff. Nice to see a thread where they look like my shop. A previous thread made it look like everyone had tons of space and everything in its place.
