My new shed

[buzzy bee]

Hi

I used to have a little garage, but filled it and had stuff outside in the rain, yes in the rain, I live in the UK! hehe

This is a pic of my shed, I share the space with a friend.

a little engine runnin in the shed:-

More of the shed:-

Bit of a mess here, have sorted out since well a bit!:-

A spare chassis for my pickup!:-

Some old drill bits:-

My lathe C1903:-

I only really use my shed for storage, and for working on my cars, I work in a large workshop where I do my welding, and have acces to MIG, TiG, Stick, Plasma, Oxy gas, with extraction if needed. Also a full machine shop, and 8 two poster ramps, and one 4 poster ramp.

Cheers

Dave

Hi and welcome. Is this the engine for your truck build. Just kidding what size motor will it have?

Hi

Thanks for the welcome, things look a bit different in the shed just now, as the body is off the truck.

The engine is the standard Ford Sidevalve 1172cc, geared down due to being a comercial, so unlike the cars that will travel at about 55mph the truck will do about 30mph, but tend to stay about 25mph so it isn't over reving!

The engine in the pic is a Petter AII and was probably orriginally powering a cement mixer or the like, obviously the mixer was lost long ago!

Cheers
