Over the past 50 years I have rebuilt and painted 2VW Bugs and performed numerous mechanical and body repairs on the family cars, in this spacious work area. Although suitable primarily for Bugs and Model A's, Sally's Buick roadster spent a winter vacation here being revitalized. It was close quarters but doable.
Construction is Circa 1935, Depression era. Note the polished Italian marble floors. Wall treatment is mortared brick and cut stone. Cabinet, sound system, electrical and computerized parts storage work was provided by Charley's Construction. Heat is provided by the adjacent furnace room along with laundry and wash up facilities. Air conditioning via open overhead door and southwest wind. Living quarters in the two stories above.
The shop is provided with the usual power tools as well as a complete array of SAE, metric and VW special hand tools, 5 HP air compressor, MIG welder and an antique single post hydraulic lift seen under the front of OLEBUG in the accompanying photo. Space is also provided for various landscaping and snow removal tools.
My garage has for many years provided a source of peace and enjoyment which I'm sure will continue for years to come.
