My garage  :-\

Why the slanted face?!?!  That's a GREAT stable!  8)

BTW - I'm TOTALLY jealous of your ceiling height!!

I agree, that a nice big garage in height, width and depth.
Very nice collection of cars. Looks like a white Boss 429 under the cover!

  The face is because, I told the wife I had a " PROBLEM" The garage is getting to be too small. She says get rid of some cars! PROBLEM SOLVED.  :-\

I was going to post a few pics of my 2.5+ size garage, but after seeing some of these other guys super-garages, forget it. I got nothing to offer. Someday, I'll have 2 3-car garages on my property, but that will have to come AFTER I get my first Shelby.
Waitin' for the day I get my first '70 Shelby convertible!

Finally making progress on my garage.  The weather here in Maryland is slowing progress this week but we will get there.  It is not as big as I originally planned but the county restrictions must be observed.  It is 20' X 32' with 13 ' ceilings.  Hope to have the Shelby tucked away by winter.

It looks like posting pictures is not working again so I will try the old fashioned way.

Good luck getting it all wrapped up.

VERY nice! And the ceiling height will be awesome for stacking / getting under cars.
Nothing beats a classic!

That pole garage is gonna have tons of room. It will have stairs to a second story above the cars? How many cars can it hold?

If I were to hit the lottery and was able to purchase 3 more Shelbys you could stack and get 4 in there.  But for now it will be one lonely Shelby and my Harley.  I am going to have a lift.  I really want a 2 post but because it is not as wide as I wanted it may make more sense to get a 4 post.  I will make that decision later.

BTW did you all notice the custom weather vane they made for me on top of the cupola?  They had roosters and such and I asked if they could do a profile of my car.  I sent them a few profiles and this is what they came up with.  Not exact but on top of the roof one would never notice.

Corey,..don't forget that if you decided on a 2 post it has a different requirement for the floor cement thickness .

This might work for your new garage as  a lift. Much smaller footprint than a four post, and can still be used for maintenance work.

A "tight fit" doesn't even begin to describe the first picture, right hand bay.

The second pic shows a more comfortable height to the lift side ☺️

BTW - I sold 3 of the cars in the first pic. I think you can guess which one I kept.

Bigfoot I am having a strip of the pad 6' long the full width of the garage that will be 6" thick to accommodate the 2 post lift so I think I am covered. The rest of the pad will be 4" thick.
