Well, tomorrow the trusses go up connecting my Garage Mahal with a small (16'x32') shed garage next to it.
Addition is to left of garage in this photo:

Great project - you can never have a big enough garage.
So after you are done, how many vehicles/MGs will your extended garage be able to hold?

Around 20 - & the reason I'm building it is the yellow 1969 MGC GT with automatic transmission (one of 442 made) in the truss photo doesn't have a place in the garage now - neither does my '79 V8 MGB that's presently in paint booth!

Room for 20 cars? That is so cool..
Do you have a bathroom as part of your plans?
If you get into trouble with your spouse, you could just go live out there.

Yep, place framed out inside for small bathroom...I usualy work on interior projects during colder months & outside during nice weather - this is a 1-man project that's been ongoing since 1994!
