I think his wife has kicked him out....... Lucky you!

It is pretty big, 4.8m x 6.2m, the hole thing used to be laminate flooring. the previous guy blocked up the garage door and insulated it. And yes thats aircon i had to take the other one down because its where the doors going back in.

The wife hasn't kicked me out yet, but she will when she gets home tommorow and finds a chassis and suspension laying around. I haven't told her its coming... ooops

this is the other end. A little tidying still to do.

Holly crap I would loose everything in there.

My motto is "keep it small, everything is then to hand"!!

That's what I tell myself

I built mine on spot 192 of my building's open garage. Spot 191 in front is where I park my tintop (not pictured). The other spots are from neighbours so I had to be careful not to hit anything. Also I could not make too much heat (no soldering) because of the fire detection and sprinkler above the spot.
Built on 192 open spot

I had a storage room about 15 meters from my spot, where I stored all the parts and tools between sessions and where I did most of the work that did not require being around the car (like cutting GRP, assembling dash, etc.)

shoelaces can be loose, but you lose things (or games). Yes I know....spelling police, but it is one of my pet hates.

I have garage envy .... I shall be starting mine next week in a single garage.

Pity I have already built mine as hopefully should be moving here within the next couple of months!

Finally got my Monte running and back on the road, so it can happily drive in and out of its 'parking bay' as intended. Floor's now painted to stop the endless cement dust too, so I can crack on with the build after a 2yr delay!!





It's all a bit cramped at the moment as I've probably got 80-90% of the Haynes in there too, including 2 x engine/boxes. As bits go on the car it shoulde hopefully get better
