reid Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 (edited) Where the hell do you find all the time? i dont i live inside that garage LOL. the caravan inside it now has a cooker, fridge, tea urn (for hot water), a bed (with sleeping bags), electricity, a gas heater (as well as the 'furnace' in the garage). so to chill out i go down there and work on the motor. i love working on the car when im not actually fixing something thats broke, and the garage is fooking amazing for it,m most nights im in there till 2am, although ive did a few all nighters! if anyone fancies taking a trip up to lend a hand then theyre more than welcome LOL. ** ADD, just ordered my gauges, and a few other wee novelty bits and bobs. just need the time to get them fitted!
