Title: V23 as DrPepper Post by: ss540 on December 14, 2011, 11:45:22 am I wanted to add a bit of different color to the garage since all my other machines are Coke red or red/white so I did the V23 as a DrPepper.

Title: Re: V23 as DrPepper Post by: ss540 on December 14, 2011, 03:46:50 pm Thanks guys,
The wheels are some I picked up at an automotive swap meet. I plan to change to some shorter ones soon. I got the porcelain DrPepper sign at the Warrenton (TX) antiques fair. It is a good fit on the machine. The garage is kind of empty right now. Our 59 Biscayne is at the painter and when it comes back, an LS3 is going in it and reassembly will begin.

Title: Re: V23 as DrPepper Post by: bcharlton on December 15, 2011, 09:41:18 am Forget about the machine. I love the garage floor. What type is it?
BC Title: Re: V23 as DrPepper Post by: ss540 on December 15, 2011, 10:50:43 am The B&W tile is peel & stick from Lowes and has kind of a marble swirl pattern. Has held up well after 6 yrs on the floor. The gray roll out flooring is the diamond tread from Better Life Technologies. Been down about 6 months where the cars sit. So far, it's doing well. I vacuum it or blow it off and occasionally mop it if it gets dirty from my wife's daily driver or working on the Biscayne.
I considered the epoxy paint, but the success of epoxy is mostly in the prep. The roll out was so easy. Kiinda pricey, but worth the ease of install. Title: Re: V23 as DrPepper Post by: Matt on December 15, 2011, 11:35:12 am Your garage looks nice! It's cleaner than inside some people's house.
I like the row of coolers and gas pump globes. Title: Re: V23 as DrPepper Post by: bcharlton on December 15, 2011, 12:33:28 pm I missed the soda coolers on the first round. I have 3 or 4 of them hanging around he garage. I think I will dispay them as well. Nice work.
