sharley17194 Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 Started moving into the unit, looks a bit less empty now lol. Still got the cars to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiC Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I would love to have somewhere like that to work on cars. Except I'd probably fill it with cars needing too much work but that I've picked up cheap. Something like that around here would be nearer the grand mark a month to rent. sharley17194 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharley17194 Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 ouch! I think we are very very lucky but i am too filling it with cars that need large amounts of work haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiC Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I might be able to get something out of the city for a bit cheaper, it's just not easy to find such places. Nor would my other half be too happy if I spent all my spare time there, avoiding her! But for storage it'd be ace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2_craig Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Nice one! Any room for a lift under the apex of the roof? That would get another car into the place sharley17194 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharley17194 Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 sadly not, but the building next to it is taller longer and with a 4 poster already, we are eyeing that up once the current tenant vacates till then its progress over this...

sharley17194 Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share Posted December 5, 2018 I had a shuffle round and got an extra car in, one day i'll make a start on a project! I also have a nice new camping trailer so got the one at the front with some random bits in it for sale, £40 if anyone wants it. Comes with a heavy ass cover. The GT in the middle is the next project, i shifted things round so i can get to refitting the chrome following the repaint. I hate working around freshly painted cars!

sharley17194 Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 so im sitting here considering the future. I have a really random mix of tat but way to much doesn't work.

My once reliable daily has been sold. so im left we 3 cars insured but only one works which is a classic mini. oh how the tables have turned.... i think the new year so bring something new....just dunno what!

sharley17194 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 At the weekend i started to build the shelving which will houise my magenta shells so they are no longer crushing my MG 1300.
