I like simple stuff. A 40 x 80 shop with two apartments on top would be perfect. I would dedicate part of it to a paint booth, part to a fabricating section, and part as an assembly/parking area for finished cars. I would put a paved concrete carport across the enire backside, so I could park more projects under roof until their time came.

For equipment, I would add the very biggest air compressor I could find, plus a Bridgeport and a lathe. I would enclose part of the carport for a sandblasting booth and install a commercial grade sandblaster. I would also intall one lift outside and one inside.

I just checked my lottery numbers for tonights drawing, and I won't be building that shop anytime soon.
