Tunnel to the new basement (home theatre, office, workout gym, and spiral stairs up to garage). I wonder if you can tunnel to the neighbor's yard and put your basement under their property too. ya know, to expand. Kinda like slant drilling

If you guys go to home depot and lowes they throw out the huge adjustable racking every 3-4 months if you ask sometimes these will give it to you because it goes to the scrap guy i got my garage done in that racking really nice stuff.Save me about a grand in shelving.

Check out craigslist for shelving also. Ive been kicking ass lately finding real heavy duty steel shelving units for $30. Not the garbage you buy at blowes. These things will hold just about anything you can fit on them and can dissasemble in no time.

This is my mess! In the bottom left corner of the pic you can barely see some yellow of my '64 Lemans. The green-wheeled machine with bias tires is my '27. The rest of the cars have to sit under covers outside.

Quite some years back I had a copy of Hemmings (too dear to buy over here when they factor in the air mail post), and it had an advertisement for a Company in Canada?? who would supply plans for very nice Colonial cabin type garages. It also might have been a US Company but I seem to recall it was Canadian. Not really sure but If I saw the name again I'd remember.

I'm wondering if anyone knows who they were, do they still advertise and is there an address for them? Maybe if someone has some 10 year old copies of Hemmings lying about you might find them in there for me. Please........
