[Manta400barn]

was jus looking at plumster's nice new garage

got me thinking where does everyone work or store there manta

And more importantly go take a picture

sure there will be the usual everything from huge industrail buildings to small council lockups and then the poor soles who work from driveway or street " who usually manage a dam sight more than us more fortunate"

Any way this is where manta goes to have work done

sorry its not a pic of manta as dont have any full views of her in garage

I have been working over the last few weeks extending mine into a double, tandem type garage. Getting there now, just the external wall to render, few bits to tidy up and the electrics to sort out, will post photos when finished.

I do all the modifying to my manta on my drive[V][V] and then use the membership secretaries garage to paint it.I won't bother posting a pic of my drive, but you get the general idea.[V]

I've progressed from working in the street to getting a small garage, then a bigger garage, then a much bigger lock-up, now i get a corner of my Dads stone masonry workshop (partitioned off - dust and oil dont mix very nicely, and if i get oil on the stones im DEAD meat!!) [xx(][xx(]

I'll tell you something, the ONLY think bad about doing anything in the street is when the neighbours complain - some people seem to be under the impression that working on a car outside your house is a terribly unsightly/horrible/dirty thing to do, bringing shame upon the entire neighbourhood with your common, filthy, car fixing ways. Forking brass-holes...

My car is in an old WW2 grass covered hangar on an airforce base, with most of the facilities I need[], the only thing I haven't got is the enthusiasim[:I], to drive to it and work on it.

I think it is because it is the out of sight out of mind syndrome.[][]

I would take photos but I can't drive at the moment. Maybe when I am back on my feet, and I think I am going back to straight days rather than shifts[][] I will get more done. I wish the car was outside the house so I would be forced to work it every daylight hour.
