Restoring the garage bay. Any garage ideas I should do to make life easier?

Definitely agree with more lights based on the shadows in your photos it looks dark in there. I bought LED hanging strip lites from Costco, basically they look like old school twin tube florescent light fixtures except the tube's are dimmable LED, they come with remote controls and simply plug into a 110 ac socket, it looks like you have screw in sockets now so easily converted. They are cheap and amazing, I've had mine 3.5 years and no issues. Next buy a cheap hydraulic press you won't believe how many times you will use it. And of course IF you could afford it, a lift although you don't have a tone of height it's better than working on your back!
