Today I took my red turbocharged 924 for a final drive of this season asn snow was predicted in next week and after that drove her to garage. I keep all my Porsches there and do some work on them also. Could be bigger space but in the next building next to mine (which is old soviet rocket hangar btw) there is a complete machine shop available which I have utilized to do all of the fabrications on my cars.
At the very back behind that ancient Morris (belongs to friend of mine) sits my 911 which I'm planning to move forward in near future. Today I moved my white 924 forward. It should receive new 2.5 liter 16v turbo engine this winter.
Please ignore the mess, I moved a lot of parts and other stuff there lately, need to sort and clean up next weekend.
Found one pretty cool pic of my Gulf that was taken on the race event at the end of August:

Would be interesting to see other peoples garages. So if anyone feels they could contribute to this thread let's see where they hold their cars/work on them? _________________ '83 924 2.6 16v Turbo, 470hp

Now, if the Wisconsin summer weather, hot and humid, were not so miserable, there definitely would be more wrenching going on in this 'garage'. In the meantime, plenty of sitting on a chair drinking beer and listening to music, gets accomplished!

The main reason I liked the house, a 2 car garage. Half garage, half gym.

Screw the garage, Raceboy, we want pics of the misslie hangar!
No, I don't think Rasta's garage wins - needs more racecar...  _________________ Vaughan Scott
