Default Cossie moved to a new home and found a new friend :)

I moved house a couple of weeks ago and with it get a spanking double garage for my toys!

My poor shitter has been stuck out in the cold at a friends house for a few months now since she stubbornly refused her new engine

Anyway i dragged her home last sun which was an event in itself and gave her a clean. She was feeling lonely so i've treated her to a friend

I took that pic yest before i removed them to clean the garage and carpet it with all the carpet i removed when we moved in. Is that sad?

No "after" shots as it was dark

*edit* better add the pic

yup im loving the garage, the 3 door is now tucked over to the left and also right forward so i can sit my bike sideways behind the car. My saff is tucked over to the right but still heaps of space down the side for stuff. theres shelving up the top at either side of the garage which is ace for storing wee bits and bobs

best bit is that theres no internal access to the house! means that the wife cant go near it as she wont go out the back door and in the garage door its for me and my stuff only
most other houses in the street have an inner door but the shape of our means there isnt

I'm unbelieveably jealous of your garage. I'm such a sack I dream about a double garage like that.

Yours is crying out for a Plasma on the wall! Oh, and a naked titty dancer in the middle.

Edited because after 27 years I still can't spell jealous first time round

mate im sad too. my dream goal in life has been a big double garage that contains a cossie and a gixxer 750 and at last i've done it! shame i dont have a car like yours to fill the gap tho!

another bonus is the electric door which makes me feel like a king LOL


trist
i'll see if my mate knows where it was registered. its a stunner of a car like thats well cared and been shown in the past.

fair enough, the size of the gap must be deceiving

Love the space with that garage!

cars aint too bad either. whats up with the saph?

Dont worry, when i was building the kitcar with my dad, our garage had/still does have a sheet of tarpaulinm underlay and a cream carpet layed down so we wouldnt get cold.

the carpets now a very dark cream/black colour now

time for a new one, the cars built so hopefully no oil leaks or that pish

yes pic is deceiving. i was getting stuff from the garage a wee while back and checked the gap after you said and theres loads of room maybe 2-3feet.

Mr O
A dodgy piston lets say
put new bottom end in few months back and it makes a horrible noise got 2 complete non working 200 blocks now with 1 fucked piston

smits
see above, got a plan in the making tho...
