Rick-Manta Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 What's stopping you from finishing the roof and paint? They'll only get harder to find as time goes on and the longer you keep it, it'll even prove to be a good hedge against inflation. Plus I'll be in a better financial position to buy it in 2025! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1200bandit Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) Have got to wait until a nice day in spring as it’s to cold to paint as the the paint will not turn out right. Been there done that. Got the have the garage door open and the door into the house open as the house will get full of paint fumes As for the roof don’t fancy cutting the out as l think the solid roof looks better. if it does not sell it will stay in the garage for a few years, which is a shame as it goes like sh#t of a shovel.
