I have been cleaning, organizing and fixing up the garage for 5 weeks now.
Lets start with before pics. This was after I cleaned it up enough to barely fit the M3 in months back. (IMG:http://i41.tinypic.com/snce3k.jpg) The ceiling and shelves aftering being cleaned off (IMG:http://i39.tinypic.com/346rmew.jpg) (IMG:http://i43.tinypic.com/403nb.jpg) (IMG:http://i41.tinypic.com/72abkw.jpg) I tore out the bench, cleaned and organized my shed so I could move a bunch of the car parts into there once they were organized. Next was a bunch of drywall patching and taping and repatching and sanding and...... Finally two coats of Killz was followed by 2 coats of paint, a little touch up and almost done. I know the gray is kinda ugly; it was $5 for a gallon off the culled rack. (IMG:http://i44.tinypic.com/se2811.jpg) (IMG:http://i44.tinypic.com/157yjwh.jpg) (IMG:http://i41.tinypic.com/vgiws0.jpg) As of right now there is nothing but cars on the lower part of the floor, and I hope to keep it that way. I will probably build a little table to go next to the tool box, not sure yet. All told I spent $200-$250 on supplies, and am happy with the results.

I don't know how I own so much crap. Even if I put it all on shelves, I'd fill up half of one side of my garage. Rhit rs was at my place a few weeks ago and can tell you that my garage is in serious need of a cleaning/repiling of crap. I might start that today when I get home in a bit.

I had to restrain myself from tidying up while I was over there (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) TB, you need some heat in that place...then you can prep the car all through the winter. I'm glad to hear the red car is faster. The M's not bad for a beater car. |
