Hey I ain't greedy, just a veedub lover 🙂 Anything that reduces mowing is good.
Sad part is for the money I've spent on the garages I could have bought a few very nice VW's, but have no where to park them.
:alien
Don't think I want to show my cars off to the people in my neighbourhood 🙁

pod i`ve got to finish this thing one day

Suddenly I renewed motivation to put the walls on the shed.
I'll swap the fasty for that buggy when it's ready. Purchase of a buggy has been pre-approved by the missus :party

Hahaha, that reminds me of the castle movie. What a classic 🙂

Yep, you got that right Robo, we have no bath room at the moment, but sheds more important to finish 🙂

Hey Graham, not sure yet, but something simple, probably manx style body on ball joint/IRS pan with emphasis on keeping it very light.
It's a long way down the to-do-list though.

Hey Terry, nope Pan is at Dad's awaiting the rest of the parts needed to turn it into a trike. Slowly but surely. I have'nt forgotten you!!

OK, just in case you all think I'm a slacker, I have made some progress.
Just doors, gutters and a bit of power and it's all done. The large shed out the front still has room for the beetle yet to be moved, type 1,2,3 living side by side with the workshop out the back for projects, not to mention the old crappy shed I will avoid knocking down that will store projects in waiting.

Where did you get the sheds from. I have been told i can have a shed at my parents place, but i must pay for it 🙁 trying to find somewhere cheap for kits.

I have no sympathy for my car, only the wallet that pays for it!

Fast back is lonely, you want me to store the buggy next to her for a while 👍
You bet I can't wait, better fit the doors first. Neither can Dad who's storing all my junk. Suprisingly it's water tight (yeh I can build a shed), so some shelving and a few work benches and I'm away!
Oh, better get some power to them also.
