The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

68 BENGAL R/T

Love the floor Just 6T9 CHGR.
    Where did you get the floor from? I have a an original orange and black '68 BENGAL Charger R/T and have
always thought of doing the same thing to my 1.5 car garage, Mine would say BENGAL R/T.
    I have a Pirate / Beach theme going on in the backyard, but that floor would be perfect for the inside.
By the way, like seeing all the orange and black Chargers!

Thanks!  :cheers:
The flooring is from Race Deck.  Ive had it for about 7 years now & it has held up great.  I was sick of painting the floor every couple of years only to have it peel under the tires.  Can use a jack on it with no problem....jack stands require a piece of wood under them though.   The Charger script is just a decal

:drool5: That's way cool! Start my extension soon. Can't wait.

Thanks! I fought the HOA initially but ultimately I am glad I took their advice. They limited me to 4 bay doors on the front but was able to extend the garage 3 cars wide and two deep.

Now I just need to sell the wife on making to original garage a tandem set up...

From what I can tell, your large garage on the left is "all garage" all the way to the ceiling? The windows on the front are merely to look like the rest of the house on the right?
It looks really cool, and I love how much overall space you have.

Yes that is exactly how it is set up. The HOA said it had to look like it was built that way originally so I tried to keep it symmetrical. I was only allowed the four doors on the front (the door we added is 10ft vs 8ft) and I added some space before and after the walk through door. Most people don't notice it at all. Originally we added two bays and a patio off the side (note the roll up doors on the side). I made sure I could fit a car on the patio and eventually enclosed it with sliding 'barn style' doors. The original three car garage has an apartment on top so I wanted to make sure this was open for lifts. The doors all around it allow you to drive in/out/around very easily and add a lot of air flow.

You will have to fill us in on your extension project!

Not trying to hijack the thread but here are some more pics to make it easier to see:

That is Ok seeing i got my idea off of on from you tube it was a 68 tho! :2thumbs:

I'm thinking about inlaying the decals under the paint then ghosting them it so it looks like the car was a lee than repainted

clever right? opinions are appreciated

That's really cool, thanks for giving us the tour. :icon_smile_big: I really like how it looks sort of cozy in there, yet you have a lot of room. The HOA thing reminded me of another guy with a similar problem. He wanted his motorhome out of the elements, but the HOA was giving him grief, so he got a little creative...HERE:coolgleamA:

How many cars do you have in that garage?

I love that pic with the Charger and Challenger- looks like it could have been taken 40 years ago!

Our garage currently has 12 available slots including the spots on the lifts. Unfortunately I have two cars that are about to get out of the body shop and need to 'find' some room!
