youd be a little bit annoyed if you spilt your dirty oil on the floor...
perhaps its just a conversation piece and is seldom used?
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.

if u read the captions it tells you that the remake of the garage is mostly for clean assembly and clean work.....so basically its all for show. the first garage did seem to get used however. that first pic is great with the porsche and all the tools .......drool.

Do You think this fellow was a spotlamp salesman in another life... He really knows His 4300Kelvin bulbs etc..,,
or Maybe a Garage "decorator" ... not many of those around.

I couldn't afford the Door much less anything else...
I would have just painted the orginal garage...
I wonder what sort of house this fellow lives in?? and whether any of those tools ever gets used....???
What about the "copper" downpipe from the roof????

how long have you had that? I used to sail a cole 23, called freedom. I remeber the old far's they were when we were both going hard they had us to winward, but once we cracked the kite we blasted past them. Well also beat them in any winds over 15knots except for broad reaching. those were the days, Haven't been in a boat since highschool now, almost 5 years!!!!

which school? I raced form age 5 to about 17 then dropped out, grew up in the sabot, went tp 125's and lazers and raced mirrors or the team racing at RQ for the school. If you raced for teh school, you would have only been grade 8 when i was in grade 12.

at least motorsport is cheaper than sailing. But would still love to get back into it. Its one of the great loves.

umm let me think......yeah it was in year 8 for mountain creek state high i think....jesus i went to so many schools. only for like 1 term i think it was costing the school to much or something. we raced at the sailing school on the maroochy river mouth on the mooloolabah side. in the river. i cant even remember what the dinghys were it was ages ago. i played so many sports i never really got into one and kept going....except for indoor rockclimbing .....im quite good at that and spent about 500 bucks on a harness and shoes and chalk bag etc. havent been for ages though. they used to know me by name at rocksports in the valley. i think its changed hands since then. wow we kinda took this thread off the topic lol

I graduated 99. My brother went there and graduated in 03. Matt, very musical, involved in the chorale (hes been asked back to go on tour with them this year to europe) and most of the instrumental groups. You would have been there when they were building the kit car? they only started 2 months before i left 🙁 . Good school.
