Hey William, yours is the type of shop that I envy. I will find some solace by believing that this is the picure you took after hours of cleaning.

My shop is only 16' wide and 40' long, due to limitations with my lot. I did install a 2-pole Direct Lift, don't know how I ever got along without one and gave my 30 year old car ramps away last week.
I had wasted space above the garage door, so I installed a 16'X10' loft for storage. This weekend, I installed a 45K BTU natural gas heater. Have 20' more of 3/4" pipe to install, wire the thermostat, and run the exhaust duct through the wall.
The limited space does cause some inconvenience with juggling the cars around.

29modela,
Now what do I do, Woe is me! I TOLD EVERYBODY IT WAS YOUR GARAGE! I even put it in our newsletter!
Should I PUNT or go to CONFESSIONS?? The dog has NO advice, this time! Bill W.

Your fine... I don't think anything in that garage is owned by my neighbor
My stuff has been in there 7 years. She is a single mom that has no interest in using it. In return I do the lawn mowing, snow plowing and tree trimming.

My "garage/workarea" is the 3rd stall of the garage that is an extra 12' deep. When the house was built I planned for indoor storage for my boat w/trailer. After I changed to a larger boat that won't fit in this garage I had to fill it with someting so the speedster is there and the 66 Lemans convert is under cover, Sometimes my projects infringe on my wife's parking spot when she's not there. Not ideal but it works for me. I do have a dedicated workshop in the basement.

This is my "shop", for now.
I'm building 30' x 30' earth sheltered shop with a pit at my retirement home in the high-desert. Earth-sheltered to try and mitigate the temperature swings (it goes from below freezing to 120+ up there) and a pit instead of a lift becuase building a cave that tall is way too expensive.. think pit like they have at Jiffy lube.. enough room to store stuff (like the doghouse couch and Big screen)

I LIKE that photo. It, sort of, tells a story, that we all know.

29modela,
Pic IS classic! Timeless, could have been shot 40, 50, even 60 years ago, should be in all the "A" magazines!
I'll sell all my rights to the pic, as you gave me the OK to it in an E-Mail!! LOL! (The Dog wants 10%, as it was his IDEA!) Bill W.

After doodling with his adjustable height brake pedal do-folly on his new truck, a friend missed the pedal & took out the wall from garage to the den! He was tempted to make the den into a garage extension! Bill W.

This is the garage that was all I had in 1961. Pulled engines in the doorway with the rear of the car hanging out in the weather. Rain and snow. built a car show winner in it. It was all I had for 20 years. It's about the desire not not the shop. But it's much more fun in my new shop. Norm
