I bought a couple of workbenches from an old Mopar dealer that closed and had them powdered in Hammertone Silver for $80 a piece. I love old school stuff :yawinkle:. This bench is from the late 50's I think. Sorry, I don't have any before pics....but it was fugly LOL

I really like that bench and you did a most excellent job of choosing a color. I haven't had time to browse the internet for work benches but I think I want something that is not permanently affixed to the wall or floor. That is why I really like that bench you have C. When you get a chance measure the height of it and let me know what it is. That is a true work bench so it is built the appropriate height. I'm guessing 36" from the floor... lol I like the idea of the rolled up sides and back so when stuff goes a flying it will stay on the bench top. I really like the idea of having a stainless top so I would never have to paint it or worry about scratching it, denting it etc... It would have to have wood underneath it. What is a sheet of stainless cost you guess??

My wife and I built our garage about 4 years ago and I still complain that it's too small.....LOL But in the end, you're right about just having a spot for your car and a workbench with a vise on it. Here is a pic of our finished garage.....24 x 24.

You have a gable roof on your garage so you could always add on to the back.

When I say I was tired of working on the floor I really meant I was working on the floor. Anything I work on lately however I fold out the saw horses but until I bought those saw horses everything was done on the floor. If it wasn't anything that had to do with paint, gas, etc... I would let down my tail gate of the truck. :thumbdow:
