My first retreat - 16x28 Jeep Garage build

[pupster]

My wife and I bought our first home this February. Needed a garage.

From the rear of the lot - dirt work done.

Concrete pad forms and re-bar in

Pad poured

Looking toward rear of lot from right side of house

Gave it the buff...

... then got the concrete walls poured & did some backfill when they were cured enough.

Thank you for those pics! Looks like a great build and a nice warm place to wrench on that purty jeep. Please keep us informed on the progress, with lots of pictures!

looking good. I remember my first garage. It was so nice not to have to crawl around on the gravel.:thumbsup:

It's been awhile, but here are pictures of the progress.

A clean start to a fun project! :thumbsup:

Starting to organize junk and prepare insulation. Winter was coming fast (November 2010).

Insulating walls after tossing in some outlets and light switches.

Jeep garage. Where magic happens.

Coax jack on top - antenna is in attic.

2-speaker in wall jack.

Tossed some 1/2" OSB in the trusses to facilitate some simple attic storage.

Great looking, and the jeep sign is a fantastic touch!

Door side of the garage...

One of my first Jeep guests!

Very nice!

Now that you have had the garage for a bit of time, can you think of anything you wish you would have done differently?

I ask this because after rebuilding my garage, I wish I would had added a hose spigot for quick wash outs, and a few more air lines.

Looks pretty darn good.

Could use more light though...
