Thought i'd chuck a bit of a build thread up as am going along getting my new business premesis clean, tidied, painted and modernised a lot more than it is now!
Got the garage off a Friend whos always done all my MOT's etc... mega sound guy couldent of asked for a better landlord tbh! and hes got fooking good taste in cars! lol
Got in there 2 days ago and started the MASSIVE clean up and got some paint on the walls so everything had a basecoat on.
Its a 3 bay workshop with upstairs storage and an extension of the building which was used for bodywork once upon a time, i'll be using it for storage and the odd small bit of bodywork.
Will ll come on over the next 18 months or so as i dont have a money tree unfortuantly lol but we'll get there in the end
Will let the pic speak...

Front of the garage all signwork will be replaced soon too and the shutters are going black instead of multicoloured

Tomorrows job clean all that shite out, get all the thick oil scraped off the floor and de-grease it ready for some floor paint!!!
Also moved all the engines (3 YB blocks, 2 scooby blocks, 1 zetec, 1 CVH, scooby box, E36 evo box) out of the 2 poster bays into storage along with some gearboxes. 1 YB and and what looks to be an E36 evo motor left under the stairs as thats a fooking heavy lump!! so that looks miles neater.
Any holes in the wall have now been filled too so will dab some white over them tomorrow

Went past here the other day one of our customers is the first house you come to after the flats, that white rusty Astra SRi
How do you cope with that road! Backing out must be a nervous moment!
