When Is a Three Car Garage Really a Four Car Garage?

This is my son's dream- no house just a huge garage

When is a three car garage a four car garage? Let's begin to count.

1974 Excalibur

First, there is the cute little metallic light brown 1974 Excalibur convertible. It has only 4,000 miles on it, but I bet they were all fun miles.

Lincoln Continental and Cadillac Convertible


Next is the 1964 red convertible Lincoln Continental with the "suicide doors." (Front-opening doors are called "suicide doors" because, if the door becomes unlatched while the car is moving, the air pressure will pull the door open and make it impossible to close.) This is the same model car, but black of course, that Kennedy rode in on that fateful day in
Dallas.

Cadillac Limo and Excalibur 

Limo Interior with TVs

Number three is a 1992 six-door Cadillac Superior stretch limousine. There are two TVs in the back, facing opposite directions. Two of those six doors open only from the inside.

Red Cadillac Convertible


The last is a 1967 Cadillac, also a red convertible. Each of these beauties has been restored with all new leather, new tops and custom paint. I am sure others could give a lot more details on these toys, but these four certainly remind us that the only difference between men and boys is the size of their toys!

This oversized three car garage actually has all four of these autos inside. The garage is a beauty by itself. Built 10 years ago, it has heat and air conditioning, windows, electricity and automatic doors that can also be controlled from inside the home. An insulated attic and finished walls make this four-door garage a wonderful space for a home office, art studio, workshop, hobbies and maybe even for some lucky person... a place to house a special auto or toy collection. Security is maintained by the lighting and surveillance cameras. This freestanding structure makes a nice addition to the custom built home at 3317 Old Post Drive.

Barbara...If I had a few cars like these, I would want at least a four car garage. I like the way your son thinks.

Barbara, my dad had a few Cadillacs including a '67 which I got to take out from time to time.  It was lots of fun.  I had a '74 Fleetwood that was a real party car...affectionately named the "meat wagon" because it looked like a car befitting the Godfather!

Nick, I think there is always a facination with the older cars, maybe it's  the way they were made or like you say some were befitting the Godfather thanks for viewing. Hope you have a wonderful day Barbara

Margaret, I love your blogs and follow them faithfully. When I saw this one with the old cars my son was with me and I have to admit he was taken. He has a 1968 Chevy Chevell, 1965 Plymouth Fury, a couple of old Mustangs and a Harley. He stores them in a large barn, but was turning green over the beautiful garage. Your listing is beautiful and I'm sure it will sell quickly. Hope you have a great day Barbara

Barbara, My very first car was a white convertible Chevelle with red interior. The purchase of that car would make a good blog. When are you coming to visit me in Baltimore?
