    Default What do you think????

    I finally have my own two car garage. I put a few things up on the wall, but the family thinks it looks like crap. I disagree.

    What do you think? is it too much??

    Thanks!

    What, is your family Chevy lovers???? It looks good to me. Personally, I would have spaced the stuff out around the garage more though.

    I'll have to post a pic of the whole garage. I have a lot of Mustang & Ford memorabilia. I put some posters & things on some of the other walls.

    Plus, I need room for shelves to store all my parts on!!!

    I think that it looks great, and that there's no need to spread things out. Just fill it all in so that every square inch is covered.

    Also, do not be so quick to judge someone's comments as being derogatory. It is often difficult to interpret someone's intentions having only text and no body language or tone of voice to guide you.

    Got the fender cover on e-bay. I didn't know who the racers were in the posters. My Dad got a bunch of them from work back in the 80's. He is a retired Ford engineer. He worked in engine development at SVO & probably got them there. I re-discovered them in my parent's basement when they moved last year. Found a lot of cool stuff.

    Which one is Big Billy Meyer?

    Billy Meyer is the 84 Mustang Funny Car, him and Bob Glidden formed the Chief Auto Parts 7 11 team for that year. Glidden had a tbird and Billy Meyer had the Mustang.

    They were awesome.

    Really needs a FEP Calender... but other than that it looks good to me...
    Old Heavyweight Large Body Platform, two Muscle powered feet, that get traction from a set of size 12 generic shoes. Needs alot of bodywork, and hard to start in the morning... Used to be alot faster, but now does the 1/4 in 330sec at 2.7 mph.

    I don't see the problem. I stuck all my stuff on the inside of the garage door, so you pretty much see it when the doors are closed...or you look up.
