    hot rod garage

    i'm starting to give my garage a "face lift" and was wondering if any you guys/gals that have done stuff to your own garage. if you could post any pics or give me some ideas, i'd love to see what other people have done... i have a few ideas right now but my budget is limited so i'll have to make do and hopefully find some good deals and cheap ideas!

    Do floor black and white like checkered flag, buy cool posters, get race type banners,(cut of fence at race tracks) Neon signs, race slicks in the corner to sit on, BEER FRIDGE, BEER BEER BEER, Hang old intakes and other motor parts on the walls, (bent rods and pistons always have questions around them) and old broken cranks too, right Mike? Just go in there and see where the space is and the garage will let you know what it wants. Just don't let the woman help unless she understands car guy stuff!!!!!!

    I like that you added that!:p You can find some nice metal signs also that have beer or cars or women on them. but neon signs are alot of fun. we have some old ones from the club we used to own. That and metal stoney trays...they're awesome!
