Thanks again for your comment! Yes, we use it since 2 years for summer holidays. In an RV park near the Mediterranean sea: Near Roqufort, a famouse "fromage qui pue" (feel free to translate!!:bounce:) town At the end, that will looks like this: But with enough place Under to park the trailer!

Next time, just have a stop!! ;) Our gite is not far from La Fayette castel, and we would be pleased to welcome any "garager"!! In the next week, I will update our website with an English version.

I'm working as purchasing manager in a body truck maker (www.giraudon-carrosserie.com). But only since 6 month! Before I was project manager in an automotive group. I'm only 1 hour ouest from Lyon!

The other project is to build a terrace (not sure about the translation!). You will tell me: nothing to see with a garage… In fact, that will be the trailer garage!!!

Some news about the garage. I needed to park the motorhome. The first proposal was to make a big « hole » on the old house facade and convert the house into a garage. But it was to expensive. So I decided to cut some tree in order to have enough wood to build this shelter. Now it’s almost...

Merci Hugo! I had no particular issue with the original floor. But it’s too flexible to be used for the house, especially if you want to lay tiles (or use a lift). In the 70’s, lot of houses were updated with tile on wooden floor. But it’s not the right way. The only problem we could have with...

At the end the result: As you can see, my wife bought a new Liberty and we trade the PT Cruiser for a brand new motorhome!! :bounce:

The farmyard was not very clean… As the road to the house was paved with new asphalt, we decided to do the same for the yard

Thing that really changed the home:

Hello Phil Don't worry about your French! We are both trying to speak foreign language: the main thing is to try! :o My grandmother lives between Figeac and Lacapelle, maybe not so far from your home. I realy like houses in this area.

250 inline 6 chevy. I need to change it because 2 years ago, the winter was so cold and the block cracked.

From one garage... to an other... Driving a street rod was my dream. I found this one near Columbus.

As the ground lever was almost finished, I parked all the cars: My Jeep Cherokee and Corinne's Renault Colorale (aka Prairie) On the other side, 2004 convertible GT PT Cruiser and the car that replaced the Mustang, 37 Ford convertible. The boat is behind is a Rocca. It was sold and replaced...

Nothing until now.... except 2 extinguisher!

The already restored house is guest accommodation The old house is still in the same state. It will be a swimming pool........one day! And the old barn is now a garage and our house One this drawing, you can see the ground floor level: half right is my wife's garage, half left is mine :p One...

To separet the house and the garage i build a wall using aerated concrete: The first garage view from the futur living room! As it was dark in the garage, I needed to creat a new window:

I will try to explain for the floor...! In fact, OSB is used only to to avoid concrete leaks. To support the concrete, under OSB, we used wooden I-beam and a forest of prop (one each 2 feet in 2 direction). Every 17 feet, we made a hole into the wall in order to anchored the floor.

It's for sale! low mileage, rust free... :p Back to the garage! I set up the lift I bought several years ago for ....150€ (+/- 110$!). I test it with the first car I bought when I was 20 years old: a 403 Peugeot. After a 1st restoration, I decided to change some stuff on the car: Ford V6...

Hello Gilles!;) Yes exactly. We wanted to have our own house The next step was to rebuild the 1st level floor. It's a bit special because it's only concrete and steel, called "freestanding slab". The big advantage is the space under slab: no need to have pole except under lift or for...

Is was a real farm. I don't know why the barn was so big, but lot of farm build at this time had the same size. Yes the wooden floor was replaced and an other one added (pictures will show that) Suspense....
