I usually walk up mine and go, "Damn I have a lot of work to do."

But yeah, I get what you mean.

Nice looking parking lot you have there.

MC, when you're doing lift shots is that at Dads?

Yes. Well, red 4 post is my dads shop. Blue 2 pist is Dallas barn. The blue tinted vct tile in future updates, and gravel, are my shop.

Im not sure if that picture is poster worthy. Derogatory meme maybe. But it made me happy after a E36 M3ty day. So, figured I'd share.

I came home with one less vehicle here and it felt like i had miles of space, that's about as close as i got today.

I always haz a sad when I walk into my driveway. The Miata has been gone for about 2 years but I still come down the stairs hoping it'll be sitting there when I turn the corner. Instead my Versa just laughs at me. Well done on your driveway and garage, you are living the dream.

The walls lining my driveway are collapsing and the paving is beyond shot, and I have not had the time/money to remedy the situation, so every trip to my driveway is a sad wakeup call to my pathetic situation. At least there is a Fiesta ST parked there that I can get in and drive away my blues with!

Its the daily. And most comfortable car in the picture. But i agree, the mazdas screw up the vibe of vintage awsomeness. That and the grass that i can seem to stop growing in the gravel.

I hope that this isn't being taken as a "hey look how awsome i am". Not the way it was intended, though in hindsight may be the way it was presented. Its not that kind of thing at all. I was just walking back from fixing the sewer cleanout, and with the mist/lighting/angle thought it looked awsome and wanted to share.

I apologize for coming across as a pompous windbag.

In reply to Dusterbd13:

I wouldn't worry about it too much.

I walk up the drive to my shop with a smile on my face on a regular basis. It's more to do with having projects that I enjoy, and the ability to work on them. That is my dream, and I am living it.

If I walked up a drive to a shop full of finished projects, I'd probably cry.

So you don't feel so bad about showing off your garage here is a picture of mine from back in the day, that was half of my cars at the time. If I was at home I have a better one from when I had a viper, GT500(friend's) and Boss Mustang(employee's) in the garage at the same time.

Ah yes, the truth behind every Instagram post!

Yeah, I have toys that present well, but they all have issues right now. The '75 Duster looks great but has a fuel line leak that pumps air into the fuel filter under load. The '99 Metro ex-Challenge car is sitting with the wiring harness pulled apart looking for gremlins, and the '69 Olds has been sitting so long it will take a week of work to resurrect it again.

But damn they all look good in my garage!
