Thanks for all your responses!! I got some ideas from you guys so thank you for that. The color scheme represent my 07 machine Silver coupe and ITCH for a new Cyber GREy GS 
. But I dunno now that I know about GM's 2013 plans I'm tempted to wait.
Beats the hell out of me. Probably just enjoy my garage. It's actually nice and warm in there and I have a TV with netflix, and small fridge so I'm pretty set!! 
[QUOTE=RobVette;1579732692]Cabinets are from gladiator which are made by whirlpool. I went with the already assembled ones which are higher quality then their RTA series which is ready to assemble. They got horrible reviews.
I wish I like to keep myself busy and out of trouble. But it looks like everything is done right now. The garage leads to the basement and main floor of my house which is totally finished. The garage was the last piece. I feel like its an actual room now and not just a storage place for the Vette. Super happy with it and cost was relatively cheap. Spent about $1000 on everything including new tools, jacks, bench, cabinets, epoxy floor etc...... Nothing beats like a little DIY.

Your garage looks great!
This was the garage improvement I did last November.
Hint: Not the walls. It is what is sitting on the floor next to my other car. (first Vette)

A+ job 
It's a great feeling when you finish a project like this.
If your garage project is like mine, you'll always be tweaking it.

If you have a long run of wall I would say go with the tracks or panels this way you can move the cabinets along the wall and hang other hooks and gadgets up off the floor. The tracks are $10 a piece so it adds up quickly. Each cabinet requires 2. I mounted them to the studs as I do not plan on moving them.
