Perhaps Sambo you need to do what I did, turned a 3 car carport and workshop into one large garage.
Mind you I did this whilst researching my cobra build (thinking how the hell was I going to afford it / convince the wife), all on the pretext of needing an enclosed area to continue all year round yacht repairs!
But I suppose you've now run out of time to pre-prepare anyway!
Hope you can open the doors!
Cheers

Slowy, I'm renting this place whilst saving to buy my own... whilst saving to build a Cobra - vicious cycle! Anyway I can't extend the garage but I may look at putting a tarp over the driveway in summer.

Hey Sambo I'd guess that much before the comments.
No self respecting motor nut would have a shed that size except perhaps as an area to store their literature, or even the refreshments fridge(s).
But then I guess you also have at least three years to build to current ADR's so you have some time on your side at least!
Happy building

Haha thanks Les - and you're probably right on all counts. My other half is (so far) really into this project, so long as she's the first passenger or so I am told. Pretty good deal if you ask me.

Let the fun begin! It wont be long before your neighbours hate you and your girlfriend will be saying "Are you ever going to come out of the garage..?"

Hey Todd, sounds great. Not much to see just yet, just me scratching my forearms where the fibreglass grit has taken hold!
Merv, I don't have kids but I'll take your word for it.  |

For sure Stiffy. My car will be going down to Doug's in a few weeks to get the steering shaft done (steering helps). Good luck on Sunday.
