Mustang Monthly's Garage Makeover Guide

Time To Chill
After working on your Mustang, you and your buddies can relax with a high-top work table and hydraulic stools from Craftsman. The table comes with a black vinyl coating, the Craftsman logo, and a four-piece coaster set that's also available separately. The padded stools are available in silver, black, red, green, and blue. The seatback and seat height are adjustable. The table and chairs are available online at www.sears.com/shoptools or from the '08-'09 Craftsman catalog.

Work Station
If you're facing a situation where you need a workbench and storage space, check out Moduline's Workstation, a seven-drawer tool chest and countertop. Better yet, Moduline can help you increase your work space and efficiency with an add-on wall panel, overhead cabinets, a trash bin, and a file cabinet. Electrical outlets are also available for the ultimate in convenience. Visit www.modulinecabinets.com or call 888/343-4463.

Jack Rack
Finding a place to store the floor jack is always a dilemma. Stuffing it under the workbench takes up floor space, and it's too large to store in the bottom drawer. T&J Manufacturing has a solution with the Jack Rack, a storage alternative for aluminum and aluminum/steel floor jacks. The Jack Rack mounts to the wall, and the jack is placed in the cradle for out-of-the-way storage. A tapered hook is supplied for storing the jack handle. Manufactured in the U.S., the Jack Rack features a powdercoated finish for long life and mounting holes that are 16-inches on center for easy wall mounting. Contact: T&J Manufacturing, 2170 Sunnydale Blvd., Ste. V, Clearwater, FL 33765; 727/462-9968; www.thejackrack.net.

High Storage
The HyLoft ceiling storage racks are great for stashing away seldom used items, such as holiday decorations, luggage, and coolers, to get them out from under your workbench. Adjustable in widths from 19 to 30 inches and in heights from 14 to 23 inches, the rack can be used with or without a platform (not included). Ladders, skis, and long-handled tools can be stored in the racks without a platform. Another unit can be added underneath to create a second tier. For more information, visit www.hyloft.com or call 866/249-5638.

Dream Garage
Remember flipping through toy catalogs when you were a kid? Well, you can relive that feeling as an adult by browsing the Craftsman Power and Hand Tools catalog, where you can find all types of storage cabinets, tool chests, workbenches, and even flooring for your garage. At the center of the photo above is an 8-foot workbench with an overhead backwall system and wall cabinet. At the left is Craftsman's Professional Floor Cabinet, available with shelves or with locker-style storage. The 28x36 Professional Five-Drawer Mobile Cabinet on the right comes with ball-bearing drawer slides and a reversible two-in-one work surface. The flooring is available as 12x12-inch slip- and solvent-resistant tiles. You can find some of the items at your local Sears store, while others are available only through the catalog or at www.sears.com/shoptools.

G-Floor Technology
The G-Floor from Better Life Technology is an easy-to-install garage floor covering that rolls into place to protect the floor and provide easy cleanup for liquid spills. The G-Floor was developed by BLT cofounder Brett Sneed, who wanted a product that could transform the garage's appearance, install in seconds, and last for years. He and his father brought to market a specially formulated 10-foot-wide, roll-out polyvinyl pad with channels to direct runoff out the door. To install, roll the G-Floor out over the floor and trim the edges. Easy to clean and impervious to oil and other fluids, it also prevents dirt from migrating across the floor. Easier to install than coatings and snap-together systems, the G-Floor is available in a variety of colors and patterns.
