You should paint "Project MSFITOY" on the wall somewhere.

Nice Garage project Sid! Why don't you come down to SC and help me redo mine?

I'm going to break out the camera and show you an even more horrid picture of a garage crammed with crap!

Boy oh boy how I want an epoxy coated floor all nice and clean like!

What materials did the guy use? Is it something we mere mortals can get or only the car demi-gods of Detroit have access to?

Awesome work guys. It looks great.

Is the epoxy suitable for basement floors? My $#% basement flooded again. Once the flood issue is solved, I'm considering ripping up the linoluem & Pergo floor and having the epoxy done... and by "ripping up the floors" I mean "paying someone else to do it"

Thought you might ask.....My cabinet people that I've been using for the last ten years are the best ...best quality,best price, best selection, and service.And If you don't go crazy in the layout, installing the items may be as little as a couple of beers and some friendly info on mods ....Thats right I said MOD But knowing your taste and my design we could come up with some great concepts to stash all the kids toys and still showoff the Cooper.....Make it look like it should

Looks very nice.

Although, I prefer my garage be (A) unfinished, (B) unorganized and (C) lift-ready.
