Finished my lighting project

[1 old racer]

I have never liked the lighting in my garage. Yes, I did the original lighting myself. But never could get it just right. So I took it all down and replaced the old tube lighting with all l.e.d.'s. I played with the lay.out several times til I got all the dark spots taken care of and now I am happy. My garage isn't just a place I park my Mustang. It is my auto care for all my cars , my handy man household work space and tons of storage for the stuff my wife want to keep but just not in the house. So here it is, and yes with lots of photos. Sorry I am proud of it because it really took a lot to get that lighting right

I could not believe the difference it made. A very definite upgrade and cost less per fixture then the orig tube lighting i bought about 20 years.

Looks really thought out and great! I love added touch of the Ford blue fan with the LEDS and the stand alone AC - good stuff!

Jealous. Have you posted details of the blue staging ramp for the QuickJacks? Interested in others' experiences before I begin learning from my own mistakes.

here is a overview I did on them a while back . The only thing would change it the width. They are 18" wide, and I would go with 24" wide. These fit all my cars (but not my lifted 4x4 due to garage ceiling height.)

Also a couple of mods I have done to my quick jacks
