Painted floor, plenty of lighting if you can detail in there. Rack out the back with plenty of storage, or use old kitchen units so you can have a work bench. A radio and beer fridge  :signLOL:

An old automtive car signs to put on the walls.

As above I spent a few cold nights painting bricks. It doesn't cost to much, it can be done for a few hundred

Of course it doesn't help if you change the colour of your car and then have clashing colours.  :rolleye:
