My New Man Cave!!!
Chris’ aka The Whistler Garage Story
My wife and daughter wanted to find something special to do for me for my birthday and collaboratively they came up with the idea to redo our garage and make it the ultimate “Man Cave.” In doing this, they planned for several months. They purchased the cabinets, shelving, and flooring, all while keeping me under wraps. The only problem was getting me out of the house long enough for them to get the job done; they tried on a couple different occasions to do so but they were unsuccessful. So they finally resorted to getting my wife and I to go to the 3-day Spring Car Show at Daytona International Speed Way, this allowed plenty of time to get the job done but my wife had to go with me leaving only my daughter. My wife and I left early Friday morning for our weekend adventure, and soon after my daughter, friends, and “extra” children got started on the project! They finished my new “Man Cave” in about 29 hours from the time I left, working all hours of the night! Sunday, everyone awaited my arrival home, and when I finally arrived and put up my garage door I was absolutely speechless as to what I found. My wife and daughter did a fantastic job planning this, as I am a very hard man to surprise; and everyone who worked on it did an amazing job with the work! Before... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() After... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I am very thankful for my family and friends...

you need a 40 inch flat screen on a tilt/swivel mount, and a couch placed on those things you can jack your car onto that glide around the garage but also lock into place.....

I have a feeling that those vinyl tiles would get sooo messed up in my garage... floor jack, hoist, car sitting on the jack stands would probably leave imprints.. if not let us know how they work out.
