Post your pics of your one car garage or smalller - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey guys of course we all (even the guys with 3 0r 4 bays) want bigger garages/shops but Im really starting to become discouraged with my very small one car garage thinking its just not big enough to complete my truck project.
You guys with either one car garages or no garage at all please help me out by posting up pics of your shop and truck and show me what you have been able to do to your truck with such a small space.
Thanks

I didn't get much done because I sold the house and moved overseas. It was tight in there but it was a dry place to work. I have more pics but I need to resize them before I post them.

I have a small patch of gravel driveway with no cover. My workshop is in one of the barn stall's on the right.

Mine is a one and a half car garage but I still definitely know the feeling of not enough space. I just got the motor back in the truck so now I only have to side step on the driver side.

I feel for yah 67 fleet

Heres my work shop, big and roomy, and the shop floor. 3 acres, but i try to keep it contained to the back 150 square feet. Note the comfy floor treatment and state of the art storage system. Heating and cooling of the shop area is determined by the my selection of 3 *yes 3* different coats.

I am back to working outside most of the time too, which is why i haven't gotten jack done lately on the burb.

Here is my shop:

Note the elaborate features --

Fresh Air ventilation system
Custom degraded blacktop flooring
Grandstands to the south so the nurse and her friends can watch you hurt yourself
Water supply system
Electrical outlets (extension cords run out the window not pictured)

This is what I started with. I still have it, but it is mostly for parts and yard stuff now.

You guys are an inspiration --- you have to be dedicated to your sport to work out with 360 degree fresh air ventilation all the time--
