Thank you! I will tell and show what I'm doing.
While the project will show that I did in 2012. I called it "The Second Life of Renault". I got a car that's in this state.

In Russia they say "Eyes fear - Hands make". So I started doing this project.

Wow that first pic of the car scared me for sure! Great work on the repair! The garage door is cool! Is that a walk through "man door" built into it?

Everyone has money, time and project problems. Good looking working garage. Got a lot done with that car.

Do you have heat for winter time in the garage ?

Looks like a town of garages. Do you own or rent it? Is there others there that use them as working garages like yours or more storage use?

Keep posting your projects. We like pictures.

Garage is my property, I bought it a few years ago. Many people use the garage to store cars, as I hardly anyone involved. Many come to me for help.

My project number 2, called eggo "My new car". Decided to change his car. Found such an option.

NO need to apologize for your English. Few people can converse or write in two languages, myself included (which is embarrassing as I had 4 years of German studies in high school). Nice work on rebuilding the vehicles! Proves you don't need a modern, spacious tool loaded garage to fix vehicles. Thanks for sharing. ( Sure hate seeing all that snow in front of the door. I moved away from that 29 years ago!)

You did a good job fixing your cars. Very good ingenuity to own a nice car at a cheap price.

It's possible to do a lot of work in a well organized small garage.

Even if it seems small, a single car garage is a dream for the ones who work on there cars outside on a parking.

Nice repairs on those cars. We need a tour of your shop! How did you pull/straighten the inner fender on the Suzuki?

Wow, you do some amazing work. I personally find it really interesting to see shops across the world and yours indeed is very impressive. :beer:

What is the back story on the Renault? That was one heck of a turn around. Looks like it had a short dance with fire. :eyecrazy:

Your work is very impressive. Better than some of the work I've seen come out of professional shops with spray booths. I like your garage door with the built in man door. Are the curtains on each side of the door to pull for insulating the door against the cold? I like seeing shops around the world, too.

Thank you!
This Renault was in a burning garage.Garage extinguished, the car was in soot outside. The interior is not hurt. Strong smell of burning was not.

Thank you for such a high appreciation of my work!
Curtains is insulation from the cold. In severe frost space behind the curtains look like.

Nice work; the quality matches that of many professional shops that I've seen and I've been a ASE Master Auto Technician for over 25 years. Is this just a sideline, or is it how you earn your living? Thanks for sharing, again.

Love that saying: eyes fear, hands make. You definitely have a lot of skill fixing those cars.
