Odd didn't start this so I will. I had a car port (the usual/minimum in this mild climate)that I turned into a garage by enclosing two sides. Painted the floor with Rustoleum 2 part Epoxy paint with granite chips.



The other side houses Yellow TCT waiting mid dismantle while I finish house renos (major project). This picture shows Spider (not TCT) during second winter projects.



My daily driver (Integra) is in lean to blocking Yellow TCT (which isn't going any where.



My Tercel is in the plumbing pipe and tarp shed with the Spits under tarps (don't worry, they are waiting for resto).

You should also try these for keeping your babies in over winter.
They have types for outside & inside.
A great product where my TR is kept damp free in the colder months.

Well, I tried - but something went amiss...

I'm currently in the middle of (re-)building my garage/hobby room/atelier. I tore the old (effective
inner area) ~48m2 [517sq ft] and only 2.24m [7ft 4.2in] high garage down - to build a new/better one...

It will look like an inconspicuous addition to the backside of the house (a one storey bungalow btw)
with roughly (eia) 85+m2 [~915sq ft} and 3-4.5m [10-15ft] of free height, complete with a nock top
I-beam and a gantry for a 1 tonne chain hoist (I'm only using it for a 500kg hoist though) and also
a German made 3-ton 2-pillar Nussbaum (screw)lift. All of it fully isolated, heated and dehumidified
of course. No need for any cocoons here... [8D]

I'll see if I can get some build pictures up to accompany this text... ...here's a slide show for now:

I'll add pictures to this slide show as we go... [:)]


PS
The beam is designed to take the one ton hoist load <i>with a full design roof-load </i>(~2meters!)<i> of <b>wet</b>
snow on top of the roof</i>. So I guess I could safely lift something like 30 tons in the summer... [:D] The
pillars can take ~70 tons - each...

These pic's are a couple of years old but the place has not changed, maybe just a bit more clutter. There is about another 8' or so out of the camera's view with work bench and tool chest etc.

My business is located in a building that was a former Ford-Dealership from the 30's till 1976. My business only occupys the store front and middle garage. The rear garage is for the personal vehicles, including my 7 (and all my tool boxes/tools, two motorcycles, van and old Ford stake body).
