Not necessarily. Mine was built in the 1920s and has a double sliding
barn-style door that simply doesn't open wide enough to allow a car to
get inside. Therefore, my shop, which started out in the dedicated
space behind the garage, has grown to take over the entire garage as
well.

Not that I'm complaining, of course.


Model T might fit or a Mini Cooper?


I got my car inside once, just to see if I could do it, it made it
with about an inch to spare on each side but the garage is too shallow
to close the door again without hitting the rear bumper and at that
point, you're trapped in the garage with your car unless you climb
over the car.

It was originally intended for horses and the like, it even has the
old openings in front of it for heating oil and presumably there's
still a tank underneath somewhere.
