Here's where my work gets done -
https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2008/07/85SS_stripped_dsprofile-1.jpg
That's my old '85 Monte SS, which we stripped and parted out. We also put a motor and trans in my '88 SS in the same location on the driveway. The garage is only about 9'x19', barely large enough to park the car in, so any work gets done out on the driveway. I just filed papers with the town today to allow us to knock down the current garage and build a long driveway with a 14'x20' garage in the yard. Wish me luck!
Edit: I just read Bill's post above mine. His garage is almost half the size of my entire piece of property. As you can see, look how close the neighbor's houses are. We're all on 50'x100' lots.

Heres our cozy garage, my dad and I rebuilt every car you see on the 2nd pic. in the garage (well, i can only claim to working on the 77' vette and the 70' duster, as the other two were rebuilt when i was ~2 and then 8) my dad just bought a 30x40 shop were anxiously waiting to move into to work on our projects with a little more elbow room.

Hey CodeRed, this is going to sound pretty crazy, but I'm guessing that is a 1995 Kawasaki Ninja 6R.
The odds are VERY good that I've worked on that very bike!!
A suspiciously similar bike was owned by one local friend, Frank, and sold to my buddy Dave L. who sold it after a few years.
I may have video of me drag-racing it too, 10.80's I believe.
Front sprocket was -2T and the rear was +2T. :naughty:
As a matter of fact, that HELMET looks eerily familiar also!! HJC?

Thanks for the comments guys. Actually it is just a small part of a 100x60 building that I own and rent the rest of it out. The good news is it is right across the street from my house so I can slip down there and back home pretty quick. Here is a shot of the outside.

I was lucky enough to be able buy a 2nd one recently...same size as the first (9ft x 19ft, see page 2 of this thread) also no power so I now have some extra space....allthough the first is about 2 miles from my house and the second 4 miles the other way I am pretty happy with it.
I had to put on a new roof, and probably today I will start painting the inside and put in some storage racks. for now it will be used as storage for stuff we have in the shed, attick and first garage....Besides my Honda XR600R also my cherry picker, engine stand and other large parts and tools will go there.
The nice thing is that if I would be able to do another build I have some storage for parts, which was a real pain, not to mention time consuming thing building the Camaro.....try to imagine parts stacked on the car, taking them out each time I wanted to work on it and putting it all back when I was finished...took me around 1,5 hours each time.
anyways guys, keep the pics coming......love to see your garages!!
