New House = New Garage - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Just moved into a new house last week and guess what the first room I'm tricking out is

(Furniture aside of course).

Before and after pics.

Hanging some signs and goodies later so will post another pic. Flooring is epoxy with flake and a clear coat on top.

Flooring/painting took about 20 hours. Did it in one weekend.

Ordered some nice vintage signs and a rotating chevy sign that haven't arrived yet.

Looks good!

Very cool. I wish I would have had time/money to epoxy my floor too. You'll have a nice set up there!

45thAnniversary2SS · 02-25-2014, 01:02 PM

Thanks guys.

It's really not that expensive. I got top of the line paint, etc and it was still under $1000. About 800 I believe. The time involved is probably hardest part.

That looks great man! Glad to see you now have a proper spot to park/work on the beast. Congrats!

p.s. I haven't gotten to do anything with your old exhaust yet. Ordered my cut outs 7 and a half weeks ago so hopefully they will be here soon. Once I get them installed I'll have to take a drive to check out your new garage and let you check out Terra.

Thanks! Hopefully you are able to put them to use. Hurry up and join 5th Gen Car club too. Some awesome events fast approaching.

Almost done. A few more signs to hang and a TV to mount.

Thanks, the garage porn thread motivated me lol. Do it, you won't regret it. I just put a new tunnel brace on and it was literally like working on a car in the living room. Sooo nice.

I used Valspar from Lowes. My garage is about 400 square feet, so you are looking at about $700 to do your entire garage including clear coating. The paint on the walls/ceiling cost more than the flooring did.
