Is it sad that I know whose garage that is?
Any tips for sending 5 high resolution picture via gmail? I can never fit more than 2 or 3 pictures into a single email.
Otherwise, I'm going to enter, once I decide the best way to shoot it. A big box of CRC stuff is intriguing.

Not at all. I've been envying his shop for years.

Multiple emails will work. Just note in your first one that you'll be sending another email with a couple more photos.
That is a Beauty, And I will enter, heck another $ 40,000 And I could look that good. don't know if It would make me Happier though...............................well OK yea it would.
Can we ban Jack Olsen from entering, to give the rest of us a chance? lol...
It's so messy in there right now, I'm embarrassed. Too many projects going on, let me sweep up an move a few things and I'll send a better photo. I am standing at the table in the center, probably don't want me in the shot either!
The annual "make us feel guilty that our garages are too messy to photograph" contest. I love this.

That would be me as well.
Im thinking about submitting pictures of my horribly messy garage hoping they will take pity on me and give me stuff that will help organize my garage!

Yeah, just give him a lifetime achievement award and retire him from competition.
In reply to pinchvalve :
I'm available to help clean things up. I can start with the large items....
In other news, I'm suddenly turning very, very green....

I see it as the annual "OMG I need to clean this pigsty up so I can even think about taking a picture" contest.
Followed by the "Well, E36 M3, there's all the crap I've been looking for...."

If you look my place up, you'll see that I put this place together with very little money ($3,500) -- but a lot of sweat.

I'll volunteer. I was very grateful to win my category last time around, but I won't be entering this time. Good luck to everybody.
If there's a 'most cluttered' prize, I'm in. 
What's a garage? 
Ooo. Time to clean again. Motivation!

I've been moving stuff around and cleaning up mine all night just because I saw that picture of Jack's.....dammit.

A female friend of mine was asking why I was cleaning my garage tonight (again). I told her "because of Jack Olsen." She was like "who is that?" So I linked your thread on GJ, and she said "why doens't your garage look like that?"
I replied "well, mine has an old Porsche in it too [1988 924S, with faded paint], does that count?"
She said "I suppose so, but Jack's Porsche is way nicer, and he's a silver fox to boot..."
At that point, I went back to cleaning my garage and stopped talking to her.
Not much to see in mine. Someone broke in 2 weeks ago and took everything but the cars and had started to pull parts off of those. I guess I could send pics of the aftermath lol.
Edit: after reading this it seems to be way darker than intended.
Guess I better go pick up some pallet racking to organize everything.
That generally amounts to me going to the scrap yard and oohing and ahhing over machine tools I don't have space for though. I'm told he just got a couple Cincinnati milling machines in from a defunct shop...
