Garage potential? (Pics & Plans page 1)

Cheers , im going to park her across the garage but i didnt want to try to turn her today because it's still lifting up the odd bit of paint on the tyres.

 

mike that is massive!!

i think what you need is a litle mk1 to play around with before you start on your monster

 

nice try Mark

 

Awesome. Jealous!! [}

 

Ooooh, proper garage.



Derby was built in this studenty excuse for a workshop:







Sorry for nicking your bandwidth John, but I'm sure you'll agree the mess was suitably hilarious to warrant it.

 

I wouldent mind it !!

 

Will the Derby ever go up for sale?

 

or the cart?

 

Got the MEGA heavy/hard bag up :

 

i've never seen one of those before is it a specialist tool for changing oil ?

 

No it's for draining water .

 

thats a bloody good idea....how many times have you got pi**ed off whilst trying to fix a car and needed a punchbag nearby?!

 

Thought i'd do a GVK & bring an old post up .


Update:The drain pipe at the back had to be moved to right hand side of door as the water was swirling around.


Managed topaint 2 tins (60) of water-proofing a week ago over all external walls before the cold wet weather sets in.


Still haven't had time & a good weekend to paint the damn thing......maybe over the bank holiday?

Quality mate, you are one lucky f**ker. My garden just isn't big enough, I think you have done a brilliant job. Time for Vento Mike to move house....

 

this has got to be one of my fav threads in here specially seeing as my mate is just about to start doing his garage plans are away etc and we got rid of some excess soil last weekend so lots of fun to come! wish i could have one aswell

You can see why i don't want to move after my seperation with the ex & decided on the re-mortgage.

Had velly around in the week to do the pads & discs on his mk1, managed to tuck the seat along side the mk1 & got velly's motor in & closed the door & had room to get around it to do the work (while it lashed down with rain outside).

Happy days.

This was in Oct 2006:

Still ain't painted it yet .

Mike

 

dude thats one massive garage, why dont you rent the house out and live in tha garage?

 

Only found this thread there now. Thats some garage Mike, infact I'm a bit jealous looking at it. We're currently getting evicted because one of my housemates hasn't been paying his rent. I have 2 weeks to find a house and have no chance of finding one with a garage that me and my remaining housemate can afford.

My 2E engine is in the garage on a stand and the floor is covered in bits, bolts, flywheels, tools and general garage crap. I'm getting more ****ed off the more I think about it...[:^(]

 

Hope you sort it

 

Nice garage

What does it look like inside now?
