You're thinking of the garage thread in the detailing forum:

https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ad.php?t=77831

Terrific stuff in there!

Ditto, especially since my MINI resides in the driveway. A 5-series and a 356 have the garage.

A friend of mine bought a 4-car garage, and a kitchen. Oh, and the house that came with them. The rest was thoroughly remodeled. Nice garage, but it still isn't big enough. He has THREE 356's and two more cars. Can never have too many spaces!

These pics have all been in other threads, some of them in multiple threads, but what's the harm in posting them again. If you're tired of looking at them, SORRY (not really).

You're welcome to it ! Of course, there are some garages in the other thread that make mine look like a dump. You should check THOSE out.

So CR&PW&JB ... the hammer .... a prized possession, a collector's item or poised for the occasional hammer emergency? Seeing your mats hanging reminds me that it is probably time to switch to the rubber ones for winter.
Nice set-up!

The hammer... a Christmas gift two years ago from my fiancee. It's a novelty Philadelphia Eagles hammer. Wouldn't be right to throw it in the toolbox. Not really suitable for the living room either. Original owner of the house had a couple of 16-penny nails sticking out of the wall right there... tada. Hammer found a home.

Yep, I designed that garage to be purely functional.

Well... maybe not. But that rack left by the previous owners works perfectly well for the football, especially since my son and I use it so often. Walk out the kitchen door and there's the football waiting for us.

And did you notice the baseball bat hanging near by ?... ditto.
