Re: Garages from a dream
It's not a real garage or shop unless there is grinding dust & overspray on everything!

Re: Garages from a dream
Given unlimited funds... I don't think my garage would look like any of those. Those were places to show guests how much you spent on your cars.. lol
A garage is a playroom to me.... it has to be able to take it if I play rough. A dream garage to me would probably look more like Jesse James' "Monstrer Garage" set.. well equiped and roomy, but rough around the edges.

Re: Garages from a dream
Thgere is a book called "Dream Garages" that has some garages like those and many nicer than my home.I guess anything is possible if you have a water cooled checkbook.

Re: Garages from a dream
It is amazing how many of those garages have a bar. Mine just has a fridge... the bar never gets used as you drink the beer while you work on the big girl... not stand around.

Re: Garages from a dream
My dream garage is an old warehouse filled with every tool I could ever imagine. Those are all too pretty for me

Re: Garages from a dream
If you really want to get your mind blown... check out the Garage Gallery in The Forum here:
The Garage Journal Old warehouses, dealerships, gas stations turned into garages... and even custom built from scratch garages. Lots of pics! -W |

Re: Garages from a dream
A garage is a place to work om your vehicle and a show room is for displaying your vehicle.

Re: Garages from a dream
Those are very nice but I'm not sure I would know what to do with myself in such a clean environment.

Re: Garages from a dream
I just had a read of the forum on that Garage Journal site... wow they are not nice people.
I only browsed through one thread but they were not PG rated and not at all nice... picking fights and putting each other down. I like it here where it is safe to play.

....Rich people just showin off. I doubt if any of them has ever risked breaking a nail by actually working on any of those rides! As for me, I'd rather drink a few brews and go leave some very long and very wide parallel black marks on a stretch of pavement with the rides we built!

Re: Garages from a dream
Whatta ya expect from a bunch of alpha males with garages?
That is how men act around each other... for some reason. Which is why I always laugh when I hear a woman say she wants to be treated like a man... and I always say: no, you don't. -W |

Re: Garages from a dream
I have NEVER wanted to be treated like a man and I have never asked for equal rights.
I have only ever wanted to be treated like a Goddess and I only want the pick of the best rights. The question is why do men tolerate being spoken to like that?

Re: Garages from a dream
Those are not garages, no work is performed within them. I would call em showrooms.
