I like it. Go with some antiquey wrought iron lamps all over with some inconspicuous background lighting. Are you planning on insulation / heat? Only thing that’s really missing is a twin turbo mustang.

82

Mike, this place looks amazing…

83

I actually have a small wrought iron Chandelier, I should have put it up for the picture. I do want to get some old barn lights or something neat looking. You can see I have already started decorating a bit. :slight_smile:
I think you meant a twin turbo Porsche.:smiley:

Thanks Joe. That black limited edition Lotus would look nice in there. I see it is for sale. :slight_smile:

84

It is?

85

I saw it on autotrader.

I have a Silver Twin Turbo Porsche that would look lovely in there…That green car stands out too much, should probably get rid of it :stuck_out_tongue:

87

Looks awesome, what are you doing for heat?

88

I asked him too. He’s avoiding.

89

Nukes. Shhhh.

No permanent heat for now. I won’t be wrenching on car too often but I do have space heaters.

Not that anyone cares about my barn. :-)…

Absolutely kick ass barn!! I’d love to know how the doors were done with the image as I’d love to do that with one of my own photos. Also love the color of the Audi.

92

One hell of a build, Mike…

93

Thanks guys.
The door company spent like $2.5 million on a giant printer! They don’t do custom photos yet. (I would have done Lake Tahoe if I could :slight_smile: )
That photo is actually Lake Moraine in Banff National Park, I will be going to Banff for my next ski trip. https://morainelake.com/

94

Definitely looks nice…but I would have chosen Lake Erie…

:oj:

95

Well everyone knows the Canadian Rockies view does not compare to the down town Buffalo skyline view! :smiley:

96

Yeah, some really cool view we got here. lol

Would be awesome if that company comes out with custom prints. I’ve come across one image showing a nice white water river and its on the steps going upstairs. Different, not sure I’d do it but I like the idea and with a good enough photo I could consider.

Nice to see the lift worked out after all that planning.

X…

98

Better get some wood sealer on there quick…looks like you are getting some ground up moisture on the side…no?

99

It is dirt splashing up. Gutters are next, should take care of 90ish% of the water.

Or lack of. lol
The picture is deceiving too, the door of the RS7 opens all the way believe it or not.

Lets see some pics of the loft
