I tried to have some red in the design of my garage, but was VERY overridden by my financial advisor. Will need to figure out how to sneak something in.....

Where did you buy them? I could really use these especially during winter when it’s all closed up

Pin stripes? Start thin and then add a little more width every couple months. If your advisor asks about what you are doing, you can honestly answer “Just touching up the pin stripes”.

Converted my three car to manage 5 cars. Two 4-post lifts allow 5'6" clearance under a lifted car. Still have plenty of room for the Quick Jack.

Nice setup (and great cars!!). Your garage palace looks efficient and inviting - ready to get the job done. I like the lifts and would love to do the same in mine but my ceiling is too low.

By the way, welcome to Carpokes and thanks for posting the pics!

There are some threads dedicated to track days and racing in the Carpokes "Racing" sub-forum so please explore and post pics/videos there. :thumbup:

It reminds me going to a car show and when you arrive you think you have the best car, and 2 minutes later here comes a 918 Spyder and waters down your fire to a puddle… 🤣

Lookin' good! I love the clean appearance of it all - the cabinets will blend in seamlessly. Progress!
