Since we're not autocrossing this Sunday (10/9) I figure there might be a few people besides me with a gaping hole in their social calendars this weekend!   Cry

But, all is not lost - I have a grill and a backyard I can offer, if folks want to get together and eat and talk cars.  Weather should be great (if you believe everything you read on the internet).   But if it does cloud up, we can probably all fit comfortably in the garage.   Grin

I know it's kinda last minute, so let me know if you're interested - just respond on this forum, or PM me if you're shy - and we'll see if we have a quorum.

FYI I'm in Bon Air, which is in the near-west end of Richmond just south of the river.  If you can find where Chippenham parkway and Huguenot Road intersect, you're just about there.

Unfortunately, I've gotta do some housework that needs to be done before the end of the month on Sunday and Monday.  We may go look at garages houses on Sunday evening, too.  If that falls through I could show up.

Doesn't look like we have a quorum this time around.  (It was kinda last minute, I know.)
But now that I've got the idea in my head, will definitely have to do it some time.  Stay tuned!

When Dave moved to TX, I sent him a link to a 1 bedroom, 4 car garage house. Perfect!

It's too bad this "house" was taken off the market.

The question is how to fit 1.5 the amount of car in the garages.

Here is my 2 car attached garage with 3 cars



Once I had 4 cars in my detached, that would make 7

I think I need to count the spark plugs, maybe tomorrow.

That is awesome. I love the "Attached Parking" description.

Installed some German 220V outlets for my left over power tools I still have from good old Germany.

I made some progress:

Got some IKEA Wall cabinets, and found out, not everything is made in China.

Made in Slovakia !


Made in France !


And here it comes Made In the USA


OK, This what it looks like now, after the last weekend, just in time. I got my very own Christmas gift, or Weihnachtsgeschenk










More to come, I still need to finish the stairs and the opening for

the hoist.

It looks great, Engelbert!   Beautiful clean white cabinets - not like a garage at all.  Wink

But how do you reach the top cupboards?
