Always moving something around, but it's worked ok for years.

Re: The Working Man's Garage
This is my Florida "everyday" man's garage. It is just a bit crowded. Any work has to be done outside in the driveway.
Now, at my home in West Virginia, I have a building, that is about 45'X90'. It used to be a tractor dealership. It is an old building and parts of the roof, actually do not leak. Got to fix that, when my ship comes in. MIKE Click On Photo Twice To Enlarge Last edited by FL&WVMIKE; 09-04-2010 at 11:12 PM. |

Re: The Working Man's Garage
If you are fortunate to have the square footage, there is no reason a working man's garage cannot be a show place as well. I collect gas pumps so the garages are covered with signs and neon but at least one early ford car or rod is torn apart here at all times. Now if I could find a truly long lasting floor treatment as every one I have seen start to have problems within a few years it seems.

Re: The Working Man's Garage
When we built our garage I had a two part epoxy floor put on the new concrete. The floor has held up very well, most anything that leaks out of a Flathead Ford (including brake fluid) can be wiped up with no stain or damage to the floor.

Re: The Working Man's Garage
From the looks of my garage you can tell I'm a true "shade tree mechanic". Nothing fancy just a simple one stall garage built in 1936....but built to last.
