I assure you it's my very small garage. Might be hard to tell, but notice the window above the shelf's in the front corner. It's there in both pic's.

The "Toybox" as it sits.
Tomorrow's "project" is to put stuff away.

Here's mine...last pics I have uploaded of it, although there's about 4 new projects in it since these were taken ('53 Chevy 2dr, '26 Model T RPU, '31 Model A PU, '60 Pontiac Bonneville)

My Buddy's '58 Ford PU, and my red '57 IHC Binder PU...

'32 Dodge Coupe, and my '31 Model A Pickup getting some sheetmetal work...

The '58 again, and also a '29 Model A Roadster...

Another view...


The next 3 are older pics of when we first moved in...





Here's a shot of my newly acquired CTD Dually and half of the 1,000sqft carport...

There is absultely no way I'm showing pics. of my BIG mess... I do not take the time to clean up after myself. I'll tell ya though...

Front double driveway leads into my front garage (18x18) where my truck sleeps and where I work on it, front garg. is a drive through into a 20x29carport where my car/trailer is and where I work on that, then a 20x25 workshop where I work on others vehicles (one at a time), it houses most of my tools, welder, air comp., hanging on the wall; tv and fridge, workbench (wireless laptop) and all the other crap, errr stuff, and in a corner is all my metal stock PILE that I use for projects.

I do seriously need to clean up!!! Have a paint job coming up soon.

Wow Dave88, like the pony's! Man, I could'nt have a floor like that. One day in there with the grinder and the welders going and I'd be crying!! My shop is 24x24 under my house. 79 mustang parked in one side with the hood up since......oh, 2001. A bolens, a cub cadet 102. Got about 500 feet....or more of metal laying in the floor on boards in the other bay, 4" channel, 1/2 sq, 1 thru 1.5" tube, 10"/12" channel. Yeah, needs a cleaning, but again, one day on the grinder and the place is in shambles again.

Thanks! It's a bit pricey, but well worth it IMO.

It's made by a company called Wolverine Coatings. They are probably 98% industrial sales, but as of recently have hooked up with a guy named Fred who set up a company called Alpha Garage, who will be selling it retail to the DIY market and guys like us.

Check out the flooring forum here on GarageJournal.com:
http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/f...splay.php?f=20

Fred is a very very helpful guy. The owner of Wolverine also pops on there quite a bit to help with any questions.

It's nice in that it's a 100% solids 2-part epoxy. That means when it dries, nothing evaporates to thin it out like you would have with a 50% or whatever. Put down 5 mils, dries 5 mils. IIRC, I have 5 mil primer, 12-15 mil color coat, chips, and another 5 mils clear.

Have one more Stang, but it's not "home" yet, I need to pick it up in Texas, had to leave it when I moved to MD.
