O.K. so I've got some questions for you "peg board" people.

I've always thought it looked like the cool way to go and of course very organized (which I need help with) but...

It's just never really worked for me. The workbench still gets loaded with tools that don't get hung back up. I have a hard time "loading up" to go to the races, just to have to unload them all again. Tool boxes seem to work for me better.

What say ye of better organization?
You have to have a toolbox for the truck and another, more complete set of tools for the garage.

2nd set of (cheaper) tools in a much smaller toolbox.

Oh he definitely spent a bunch. By dad's garage looks like the interior of most homes (custom wood cabinets all around, tiled floor, residential quality countertops, piped in air, and I know what he spent. It was his baby and I think might have cried when they decided to move to another city and he had to leave it behind.

I have a track tool box with the basics and then a workbench full of the less used tools.

Nice set up, may try to replicate. 2 huge work benches and they are covered with shit. Garage is big enough to park both vehicles, but only one fits. Need shelving and maybe an auxiliary shed.

Is that a car and bike + host in the last photo? The ceiling looks low for a car hoist if it is. Awsome setup though

Is that a light made out of a engine or just a light behind the engine?
