.... a garage should smell - petrol and oil as you open the door.

SWMBO's Mini has been kicked out of the garage while the MAC#1 is back for summer.

Many thanks to Mark and Col @ MAC#1 over the last few days, top blokes.

Thanks to my friendly MOT tester...

Summer is comming/here....

Mine smells of gearbox oil at the moment. Something to do with the huge slick of the stuff in the middle of the floor. Job for the weekend I think

Mine has changed from grinder, fibreglass resin, 2k paint and now rubber.

G/box / Diff oil used to make me feel ill but now I quite like it.

would be slightly concerned at the smell of petrol in the garage, but gearbox and diff oil is always a welcome aroma

my garage....

well it smells of a mixture of engine oil. clutch fluid and coolant.

this cos my rebuilt bike engine desided to spit the con rod out of the side of the engine at well lets say fast enough speed to chip my concrete floor.

oh and a hint of griner due to cutting up the lighting stand i made so i can use it to lift the engine out lol
