That is an incredible garage! Nicely executed. Can you give any more specs to size etc?
Finally getting close to being done with this build. The fox is in my wife's garage still
Does it have employees like Jay Leno's to keep everything tidy and dusted off?
Are you also a member over on garage forums?

I signed with a contractor last March before lumber skyrocketed so I got lucky. The garage was a new build on the back of my property, 40x30. Ive been building out the interior since Jan. God I'm glad to be done painting. Now it's all details - trim, some more lighting and a lift.
I haven’t been able to use it enough to get it dirty yet. Hopefully my kids help with keep it clean.
I’m not a member over there, should I check it out?
I just got the A/V wrapped up. Clearly more A than V. Zoom in, if you know, you know

Really nice garage set up for sure - lots of hard work and the results definitely show. Best of luck with your future endeavors and adding finishing touches to it. I like the interior color combos you picked, subtle but they "pop" and the colors of the vehicles show well against the backdrop.I signed with a contractor last March before lumber skyrocketed so I got lucky.

Yes, certainly join garagejournal forums - I've been a member there for years. There's a ton of great folks over there and lots of builds/ideas and tech for those folks like yourself. I'd recommend anyone go there for ideas on flooring, walls, storage, updates, lighting, HVAC, lifts, etc.

A lot of fast mustangs came out of this tiny old garage over the years. Quite neat for me to see this thing sitting in my folks garage for the very first time after being gone for 28 years.

I dig the black ceilings - but my ceilings are pretty low at 9'..and I think it would feel smaller. Also, going to do some sanding on a project car early (garage is under construction) and that dust would be all over the black. Speaking of that - what are you guys doing for dust reduction? I hjave sealing my concrete on the list - and am looking into building a couple filters out of box fans.

That. Looks amazing. I thought it was a cool black and white photo until I scrolled down enough to see the Corvette red pop out. That neutral backdrop is awesome for cars. The lighting looks excellent, too.Absolutely stunning!

Appreciate all the comments.
@Cobra Jet Jet - I'll checkout garagejournal
The black ceiling was a point of contention for most I told. When it was all done, everyone loved it. The look of the garage was exactly what I wanted, but I was surprised how much better it made the cars look @stanglife it did make the ceiling seem lower, its 10ft at the wall and a little over 12 at the peak. We will see how the dust plays out. I have polished, stained and sealed floors - and I just spray and squeegee. Anything more than that I will just blow off with an air hose.
I need to hang this piece soon. This is #3 engine cowling from a 1969 727. It's a hilarious conversation piece
