Yep, that's the book..
You know its a serious shot of a serious mechanic and a serious garage. You
can tell by the fact that the guy is sittin on a "tool caddy" style creeper,
backwards, in his designer jeans, and there isn't a grease spot on his
clothes or his hands, or the mini. or the floor anywhere. My garage should
look that good just once in its life, heck I should look that good.
Seriously, the book really does have some good info in it, and some of the
featured garages have inspired me. (Well actually what they have done is
inspire me to buy more lottery tickets as that is about the only way I'm ever
gonna own a garage like any of these beauties...)
I heartily recommend this book.
A large case-o-garage envy...
