Vehicle restoration; the rule of three

As I stand here surveying the Beetle project, I suddenly realized that it takes at least three times as much room to hold a stripped apart car project as it does to hold the assembled car.  My work shop is full, my spare garage stall is full (I am parking out in the snow this winter so I can work on the car) and the body is on a trailer, under a tarp, parked outside the workshop.  Even my tool shed has seats and door panels stored in there for the winter.  If you are thinking of diving into a project like this, plan for the room needed.  I didn't realize things would get this spread out.  Wow!  Don't forget, you need room to work as well.
