Being forced to turn my garage into my home office gave me the excuse to create the garage of my Porsche obsessed dreams

I've always been a minimalist!

In the other bay is a Morgan 3-wheeler and a Pantera but it’s too much of a mess to photograph.

Ooo what MSS+ setup did you get? Did you buy direct from Sonic or Obsessed Garage?

Direct from Sonic - they were great to deal with. It’s a full 28’ wall. Going on the back wall under the mezzanine, between a utility room left and a bathroom right.

Nice. Post pics when you're done setting up. How much assembly do these need out of the box?

Nice! The MSS+ is great. Not really too bad for assembly, it’s just heavy and hard to move once you have all the cabinets connected together.

That looks outstanding. Are you happy with the slat wall? I have that going down the side where that plywood backing is in the background...

I do like the look of the galvanized slatwall. The only negative is that normal hooks don’t lock onto slatwall and often will just fall off when you grab something off of them, such as a broom or something.

There is only one company I can find that makes locking slatwall hooks and that’s Storewall:
Amazon Amazon

Sonic’s wall looks pretty nice, but I haven’t looked too closely at what all types of hooks you can get for it, and it doesn’t have that galvanized look.

Another cool product is Gallowtech and I would have used that if I could have gotten it in a raw or galvanized finish: https://www.gallowtech.com

Does Sonic have a fairly regular sale schedule, such on major holidays, etc? Do the larger full tool boxes ever go on sale?

I don't know that I've ever seen the actual cabinets go on sale, besides the rolling tool cabinets. But not the MSS+ stuff. Tools go on sale regularly around holidays. In fact, there are a bunch on sale right now that I got an email about the other day.
