    Re: A Japanese muscle car garage in AUS -UPDATE! temp storage Sad to say i know how that feels like. Its an unfortunate side effect of a boom industry and if you think its bad up Sydney way, wait till you see what Melbourne is like. I had some crazy notion that it would be a good idea to...

    Garage-TwentySix – A suburban Two-car in Melbourne, Australia

    So, its been a while between drinks. To say I have been busy is a bit of an understatement and with it a fair bit has changed. In between a blur of hard work, a few holidays sprinkled in here and there, and getting engaged, I did actually make some progress so there will be pictures; however...

    Aussie DIY budget build

    Hey mate, About the dents in the roller door, I was told of a trick the PDR guys occasionally use to pop dents out. Might work on your door, might not but its worth a shot. Basically what you do is heat up the dented area using a heatgun, obviously taking care not to make it red hot otherwise...

    Garage-TwentySix – A suburban Two-car in Melbourne, Australia

    Yeah they are a bit like that, I've found though the sectional/panel doors tend to be a fair bit quieter and more reliable when they ARE going vs the roller type. Parents used to have the roller type at their joint, was an unreliable night mare. So, your probably wondering why im quoting...

    A Shed Downunder.

    The notorious K Series headgasket failure - are they really that bad or is it just a problem with the way its mounted in the F causing them to crack the sads? Are you guys running it in a particular class like IPRA or just with a club/on open track days? I eventually plan to dig one of the...

    Garage-TwentySix – A suburban Two-car in Melbourne, Australia

    Now, lighting. Remember when I said the lighting at my parents place was terrible? Back then I was relying on 2x single bulb light fixtures, one over each bay. These were usually fitted with a low wattage power saving fluroscent globe, with the output of light being predictably ****. No such...

    Garage-TwentySix – A suburban Two-car in Melbourne, Australia

    I wonder if our friends abroad are thinking we’ve lost our marbles with all this talk of plaster lions, kitchenettes and concrete watering. :lol_hitti It is [the shelving] something I’ve contemplated, definitely; how I go about it may vary though and the ideas change. Putting doors on the...

    Garage-TwentySix – A suburban Two-car in Melbourne, Australia

    :lol::lol::lol: Got a genuine laugh out of that. Fortunately the oldies never had the plaster lion on the house in Thommo, and apart from the arched windows, theres no cliche Wog items on the place they built. The best bit though is that, with their house and mine being located in the Blossom...
