- a beam and a ladder in balsa (wood),
- 2 manhole covers,
- a dirty floor, with tyre tracks, oil tracks with some particles,
- cabling and interrupters,
- some pictures of car customs,
- an old stock of tires under the escalator,
- some rims in agrement.....................:eek: :eek:

Woow, I can't find the words to describe how much I like this.
I was planning to make one myself and I was looking for some ideas but this I did not thought it was possible to get it so realistic as this.
Very well done.

That garage is stunning. It is amazing how realistic it is.

The only thing that I see is the position of the lifts would not allow a real car to be driven onto and lifted. Maybe if you had only one lift positioned to where you could drive the car from the front of the display case in the middle of the shop.

That is awesome work, keep it up. I will never be in your league.

Hi,
thanks for your all messages......it's a pleasure to show you some parts of my passion.......for model cars.....

PSYCHO:
Don't worry about the two drive axle (red and blue),
You can't see on the pics, but this two drive axles have been fixed on an axis of rotation on the middle.....
You can turn the drive axle as you want.....
When the car arrive and make a rotation in anywhere......
It's a nice question and annice solution also.....

Hi,
the figures and all tolls are made by FUJIMI....
You can buy it at HLJ or in a shop modeling, i think.... and have some imagination to build a repair shop like this.....
Thanks... Laurent
