Garage / Workshops

Silvera

I always think it's interesting to see inside people's garages/workshops.

You never know what gem of a car or interesting piece of memorabilia will turn up !

........or is it just me who likes doing this ?!

well one things for sure ....very little work gets done in THAT workshop.....you should see the mess in mine and its only been built 6 months......

I was just going to say the same as Corktina. Every time I see a clean garage it strikes me that very little work is done in them, and besides I think a messy garage has more charactor...well thats my excuse anyway.:D

heres the in side of mine , its a bit cramped at the moment, :rolleyes:
but im about to build another one so i can store the cars & not have to move one every time i want to work on one.

Nice one Manta mad but be careful with the plastic car covers they cause micro blistering in the paint, I know from my cost:( your better off with breathable type covers.

manta mad

thanks junkyard .

i was wondering how on my 1980 sr the little blisters had fromed.
thats the end of them covers
any good places to buy decent covers here or would it be better to order in england ?

You'd be better off checking out the classic car magazines or someone like a sail maker you need to have a breathable type of cover also if you just have metal sheeting on the roof of your shed it causes condensation.Another thing I'd strongly recommend is a couple of good fire extinguishers, not the cheap ones you get in the motor factors.

I saw a manta on my travels lately laying in a field.
A gtv I think same type as above. top bit looked solid enough but i'd say been there a long time.

All I need now is to own the workshop, cars, and then get a few classics to work on
