For the MX5 boys - https://www.carthrottle.com/post/wq36z32/ I like how mazda have commented on it.

I was also impressed with this box last time i went in clas ohlson: http://www.clasohlson.com/uk/Cocraft-Top-Tool-Chest/40-7819 decent quality and cheap.

I have a bunch of halfords tools and they are great for what i need. Better than the cheap stuff and if anything dies its only a 5min drive down the road to replace (ive not actually killed anything yet). I have a few bluepoint / snap on bits but mainly stuff that halfords don't do (old imperial stuff).

Take a look in machine mart. I have a Clarke hd plus box. But as has been said go feel them. Some are made of tinfoil. Last time I was in Costco they had a huge double width box for a decent price.

Ive had the same on my mini but not as bad as that. Bloody dangerous. Anything rubber these days is shite.

G5 YEA?

I can't argue with that logic.

Ive seen that done before with grease. But bread. Who dreamed that up?

Someone retiring / closing up shop?

It looks like you got a bargain there. Assuming it works.

Can we call it daisy?

Don't quote me on this but I think a lot of euro cover give you a rental in the event of a major breakdown and your car is returned at a later date.

Is that Diet Simon?

@SamKidney do you know SH restorations in Silsden?

Thats awesome. I assume its cut out on some kind of plotter similar to fabric/vinyl?

Pics or it didnt happen.

Bah you beat me to it.

Do you even need to sort the back end out? Wheels on the front, some dollies under the back. Drag it on. Sorted. Drink Beer.

Driveway running gear swap?

What car is it Alex?

Sounds like you pretty much answered your own question. Get access sorted first no point having an awesome workshop you can't actually get in. Whats the time frame for this? When you getting cracking?

Not at all jealous btw.

It looks like an awful lot of work to take on at once. Firstly a good cleanup as you say. After that id stick to a single bay/area at a time. Get the walls/floor painted then work out how much extra lighting you need. Do you really need to 'do up' the entire space? Would focusing on the work heavy areas be more beneficial? Is it a farm building by any chance?

Get it painted properly or don't bother. It shouldn't cost too much. I was quoted £80 to paint a bumper so a boot should be similar.

What size is the tubing? And where did you get it?
