The 'BONE' Creeper


Have you seen this creeper? Looks cool and is the most easy to use creeper you'll ever work with. The large wheels make this thing glide across the concrete. Check out my website to learn more and order one of your own.
But wait... the same company recently released the 'TAILBONE' mechanics seat. Same concept of comfort and easy to use. Again, large wheels allow you to scoot around your car.

Do you need a garage vacuum?


I have one and it's great! With all of the garage vacuums on the market none have evolved beyond the typical bulky, awkward, and space hogging units. Mine is a GarageVac manufactured in the USA with a 6 year warranty. It's a sleek, powerful, injection molded from polycarbonate vacuum with a 12 amp, 113 cfm twin fan 5 peak HP turbo motor. Installation is simple. The 40 foot stretch hose and all tools are in one place . Want one? Check out the http://LegendaryGarage.com shopping cart.

Die-cast collections



Are you a die-cast car collector? Most of us have a few replicas of our favorite race cars or dream cars. Some of us have hundreds. Whatever your interests are there is likely a replica being produced by someone. There are several manufacturers who rate very high with collectors including AutoART and GMP. Both of these companies have race cars, sports cars, muscle cars, and classic cars. Looking for a classic BMW, AutoART probably has it. Looking for a vintage '32 Ford Hot Rod, GMP probably has it. If your interests lean toward commercial vehicles, then you probably are aware of First Gear die-casts. Do you want to add a classic tow truck or stake bed truck to your collection? Check out First Gear. But don't think you're limited to replica vehicles. There are die-cast clocks, motors, and all the accessories to create your own diorama garage or drag race. If you've limited yourself to Hot Wheels, you should check out some of these companies. The quality will blow you away!

Garage Inspiration...Books and Magazines



There's great cars and great stories in the pages of "Garage Style" magazine. The stories of the inspiration behind the car collections and the garages where they are kept are written by true enthusiasts. The garages may belong to individuals, businesses, and clubs throughout the country. The magazine is based in Orange County in Southern California and usually has a garage or two from that area. You might read a 3-part story about Jay Leno's collection and a story of an individual holding on to a dusty, covered-up Duesenberg purchased by a distant relative following World War II. There could be stories about collectors of engine parts, model cars, or automobilia all kept in a garage, basement, or building built specifically to house the collection. I urge you to get a copy, find a quiet corner where you won't be found, and devour this magazine from front to back.

After you've been inspired by "Garage Style" magazine, you'll want to check out "How To Build Your Dream Garage" by Motorbooks. This book will help you organize your thoughts and put a plan on paper. You'll begin to understand the inner workings of a garage and the systems needed to make it suitable for your activities. Construction, electricity, and plumbing are all covered in detail to help you build the garage of your dreams. Options for flooring, cabinets, and storage organization are addressed. By the time you're through researching with the help of this book, you will have planned the most well equipped, envy inspiring garage in the neighborhood.
