The welding marathon begins....

Bugger me, that van is going to be pretty much made out of weld, plate and underseal.

I love your garage! Organised.

Sadly now the Daimler is gone and I have dosh the wee Piaggio is sold too
Sootyvan shall live Possibly with some new mods

Nevermind, such is life, something will come up, shortly after you spend that money!!

What's brewing? With the sootyvan?

I've just booked the red lpg one in for an MOT on monday!

Fully restored already? Guess that's what you can do with early morning starts! Or did you just move it on for a huge profit?

Sootyvan plan is still top secret ( mostly due to the fact it may not happen... )

3775% Profit

I am well jealous of that garage there

3775% Profit [/quote]

Capitalist, but I do like your garage

Waz

Got to make a buck where and when you can. Saves burning a load of cash on a very deep holed project.

Well, Sooty's bum isn't looking too cute....





Making a start tho

Get the worming tablets out then that sorts most mammals back ends out!

Logi, your just showing off now with all these pics of your garage!
My wheel aches look lovely, there is soooo much mud in them I could grow a lovely crop of tatters! Dreading cleaning it all off and finding what's underneath! Thinking it might be best to wait till after mot as anything without mud looks pretty solid!

Not as tidy now, welder's playing up so i replaced the brakelines, just been for new nipples will get them bled tomorrow. Will need to get some gas gear, its too rusty for the mig

Off to a barbie, so no more worky today

Jesus Christ, that's a fair bit of cut out.

Getting there, albeit slowly



Now just need to nip to my local motor factors for a wheelarch panel............ If only.

Here's one i made earlier

Getting there, possibly by Xmas...


And just to tease your garage envy some more, here's my toolbox

The mechanic that lives with us just bought one of those, bloody handy for keeping everything neat and out of the way.

I'm Very green, I don't even have a garage, think I need to pull my finger out and start making and selling jewellery seriously, you never know I may get to designer status before I retire so I can buy a house with a garage!

Shame they don't do a replacement whole van panel.

That top box is probably older than me. Nice play zone - although its dirty awkward shit welding up arches.

Top marks for effort.

Reading through this and other posts I don't know if I an glad or sad I sold my jet when I did. I never had a problem engine wise and it was practically rust free, no advisers on the last MOT. Like some others on the forum my mechanical skills are very limited and I could not stick 2 bars of soap together never mind welding so hats of to you chaps will skill and knowledge and also the help you give to others by passing it on.

Similar job to ours, a few years ago.

Here's one of my "Play Room"
Not quite as spacious as yours. ( It was once, before the Ebay addiction ! )

Nice workshop there too! Hope those dust covers aren't hiding shame

All my two wheeled toys are living in the lockup at present.
