Thought I better make a day out of it, so Bob2 dont feel so trapped in his office
check this place = http://www.imcdb.org/i280092.jpg
Its a picture from this movie =
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baronessen_fra_benzintanken
Someone bought the place a year ago, and restored it .
Thought it would be a nice place for a pic =
Its a bit hard to get a good picture, as the main road now lies much higher,
than it did in the 50ies, when the movie was made.
This means the old gasstation is more than 1.3 meter (4 feet) below road level.

Thanks - and the same goes to you love to watch the nice work you do
Almost finished with "project garage"
will move the JanSpeed into the garage, as this is warm & dry.
My workshop gets very cold in the winter, and I can see how good condition the Green Special Mini still is (restored back in 1996/97)
This is what it all started with =

One trip to the dump, with 3 big garbage bags, and lots of other old stuff (felt like one of those Hoarders on tv )
Also removed 10 moving boxes - etc etc
This is what it all ended with =
The cars need some company so =
Not sure how old the Shell girl is, any info grately appreciated
The dog is an old Carlsberg Beer cardboard thingie.
Think the cars will feel good inhere.

Hi B2,
yes VERY tight I put Elephant tape around both bumpers, and placed some thin masonite plates against the wall,
when we turned her around.
When she was parked in the middle of the garage, it looked impossible.
Infact we had nearly 2" to spare so yes "a very thight fit" is was
The dollies is a "must have item" cant see how I managed to survive for SO long without them
Here they are together in the (warm) winter garage.

Hi Scott,
Thanks, it did take a while to clear the garage, but its totally worth it.
When the Black WP is rolled foreward like in the pic, you can open the boot lid fully,
so when pushed back, I will be able to do small jobs in the engine bay too .
