New year coming, time to dream a little

[Ohtobbad]

So, your two car garage / man cave has just been completed,
and you can't wait to put stuff in it.
Wife informs you, you have $50,000 spend it on anything you want
for your brand new garage Ok so now what?

Would you up trade your car to different, badder?
Add to the corral and if so what? tow is bette rthan one lol.
Would you start a build project?

Its a strange year, so have a little fun,
what would you do?

Well my garage would get another pony added to the coral. It would be a 2015 plus convertible. Dark gray or Red is probably the color choices. Then I would have a bit of play money left over to add a few mods hopefully.

I'd start with a $50,000 renovation and add another bay to my existing 20' x 20' garage.

Maybe put in a higher ceiling to allow a four post lift to be installed in the new found bay.

Down payment on a Ford GT,

My great uncle, Harry England, who was a successful fox farmer in Western PEI sold his 38 MacLaughlan Buick to Newton MacKay. MacKay opened the Car Life Museum. MacKay 's son, Kevin took over operating the museum from his mother. Kevin's wife now...or did run the museum which didn't open this year.

I'd get the Buick back in the family and restore. My dad reached it as one of the early cars in the area back in the day. Block is split, but still think it would be a great project.

I'd put the money towards a 1965 Mustang gt and a convertible fox body . They would look good in that new garage with a full man cave loft ??????

Harry had to borrow gas money to get back home from Newton after buying him lunch! A history of peddlers, I guess...

 

[pei_guy]

In all seriousness, it was a project my dad wanted us to do together but never had the opportunity to pull it off, and with him gone now, it won't happen together. Who knows what the future brings...

Yah, I read it......and it said :

"Wife informs you, you have $50,000 spend it on anything you want for your brand new garage"

And what I want for my brand new garage....... is another bay.



That, and a '66 GT350H in black and gold.

I’m over budget but - 2 post hoist for the garage, another 4.6 to build and a stroker rebuild kit- , might as well install that Shelby wide body kit and paint the beast.

 

[Rich06]

Convert my Mustang to a standard, repaint it, fix some body stuff on the Cooper and refurbish and paint Angie’s Mustang. I’m probably way over budget here

 

[67 AGAIN]

Would the preferred colour for that 68 be Dark Highland Green by any chance Fred?

 

[67 AGAIN]

I already have the 2 door garage so first thought when reading the title was not adding to corral because not enough room.

Solution was sell the 2015 and my flat deck car trailer and combine that income with the $50000.00 and get a 2021 Mach 1 track pack, manual, in fighter jet grey and an Aerovault trailer.

I have space in my father’s barn to winter store the trailer, or add a poll shed addition to one side of my current shed for that purpose.

 

[67 AGAIN]

Alternate universe.

There is a chance my wife would veto selling the 2015 because it’s an automatic tranny as per her preference.

If that were the case, then I fantasize that I’m getting a second two car garage on top of current one.

In that scenario, I’m still selling the trailer and combining revenue with the $50000.00 to buy a 2012-13 Boss 302 and the Aerovault trailer.
Now I have a garage to store both. Sweet!
Corral is now three strong. Sweeter! ?

If any funds left, a stroker kit for the 2006 and go back to long runner intake and dial back rpm redline to 6500.
Converting it to a torque monster instead of high rpm power wagon.
