Garage addition

I added another vehicle to the stable, 2016 Camaro, a few months ago and the truck lost it's spot in the garage. What to do? Add a small bay for the car or a bigger bay for the truck?

So I just finished the addition, 12 x 44 x 11 ft tall with a 10 x 9 ft tall door that will accommodate an even bigger truck if necessary (but not likely)

Looks good.

How about a pic of the Camaro? I have a 2002 Z28 that is one of many toys in the ever growing attic...

You are going to have your own little city pretty soon if you continue expanding.
Both, look very nice.
I see you must not have opened the wall up between the two bays?

Lloyd, thanks. There is a 6 ft wide doorway into the new bay and the sidewall is open across the top for heat to rise into the Cruiser bay. We had zero rain here in Sept. and Oct. which worked out good for getting the construction done. Now it has rained every day in Nov.

Nice looking Camaro. I also just added a new 2016 Chevrolet to my stable. It's a 2016 SS that I bought in July, and it was finally released from a stop-delivery recall 3 months later.

Understandable, but our house burned in 2011 and the Cruiser was our home for 7 very hard months. No firefighters set foot on the property and 36 hrs later I was transporting water to put out fires at the base of many of the oak trees. I'm still losing fire damaged oaks and there are still many dead branches and stumps, so I have work to do every year. And of course we lost sentimental and irreplaceable items. Anyway, the utility company was at fault and we are now blessed with lawsuit funds for compensation in different ways.

Geez, that is NOT the way I'd want to get a garage like that. Sorry to hear how much you had to go through.

Adding my own toy to the mix.

We learned first hand that of all disasters, wildfire is the easiest as nothing is left, comparied to flood, earthquake, tornado where your valuable and sentimental possessions are damaged/scattered.

Sorry for your loss. I can't imagine. Hopefully you can start to rebuild new memories. Best of luck. And once again that's a beautiful vehicle. I purchased a new I-Rock back in 88. T-tops, baby blue, that was the bomb back then. Sold it when my daughter was born. So I have a love for those cars. Enjoy
