Looking into a garage in Texas is almost like a mystery, you have no idea what you’re going to find in there. There are some people that keep their garage looking clean and organized so they know where everything is located. There are other garages that are so full of clutter that you couldn’t find anything in there. But I can remember helping my dad clean out the garage many times as a kid, let’s look back st some of those items that you used to find in a 1980s garage.

While the 1980s are long gone at this point it’s funny that some things never change, for example in the 80s it was popular to find old exercise equipment in the garage and you will still find so much of that in garages now. But that’s not all as you scroll down and look at all the items familiar from 1980s garages, you will notice that many of those same items are still around. 

Such Great Memories 

While my dad is gone now, it’s fun to think back to those memories of being in the garage with him, whether he was working on a project or just reorganizing all the items that we collected. I think back to so many fun times in the garage with my dad and brothers.
