iv been restoring my mk2 escort estate for about a year now and have decided the garage isnt bigenough, there is about 30 inches infront of the existing door and thought it would make enough differance as the car only had 12 " as it was, anyway some pics






getting off the roller shutter



door back on and a tempory side wall till the concrete is down and i can brick it all




putting a porch next to the garage to keep HER happy



ready for concrete







you can see the space its added now

well what do you think? i will be starting the brickwork tomorrow so will add some pics up tomorrow night

Looks good mate should make the garage much more usable! My garage is tiny, can just squeeze the car in but that's it.
