Yep, I am building have built an airplane in my garage. It's called a RV-9A, designed by Van's Aircraft Corporation. I guess it doesn't help much to tell you that this is not as crazy as it sounds. The kits and resulting airplanes are great, and there are thousands already flying from this manufacturer alone. Once it's finished it will be faster than most production light airplanes, yet more efficient than just about any other airplane. For example, it will cruise at 190 mph while still getting better than 20 mpg.
