IML: Garage

[jcmartin@xxxxxxxxx (Jim Martin)]

Anthony:
     Suggestions I would have are; an organized parts storage & work
area.
Enough electrical & air outlets to eliminate dragging hoses & cords any
distance. A hoist or pit for work under the car. I prefer the hoist.
However, I selected the pit due to not enough vertical space for a hoist
in a two car garage. I could not have restored my 1939 C24 with out the
pit. A
side effect of the pit is climbing in & out and no need to visit a gym
for exercise :)

Best regards and best of luck with your construction.

Hi Everyone


I just thought I would let everyone know what we have been up to lately. My wife and I have decided to build a new building for our cars, we have 9 all together, 4 Imperials. We are going to build a 38x108x16 metal building with a concrete floor. We are going to put in a 28' second floor loft area for our nostalgia room with a view of the cars below. We are breaking ground next week and hope to have it up within a few months. Three of the Imperials we will probably never get rid of, we may sell one later on as it is somewhat similar to another 61 we have.

I know there are other Imperial owners out there that have built buildings and I am looking for some ideas they may have. I am putting in one 14x14 garage and a 12x9 garage door with two entry doors and windows.
