Here's Emrys undergoing a quick pit stop in my mate Bodger's garage.
The garage is part of a barn complex which he owns. The rest of it was converted into a huge rambling house and workshop (he makes knives and other medieval gear) for him and his family a few years ago.
Now the plan is to convert the garage into a house for him and his son John. As you can see it's absolutely massive and there's plenty of room for two floors.
Just about visible under the pile of junk in the right foreground of the photo is Bodger's yellow Austin 7 Felix. Brakes done, engine next.
Yes, the more space you have the quicker it fills up. The back of my workshop being a case in point
Even the front, (wher it all happens alledgely) isn't too tidy at the moment...
And then you run out of space and have to have part of the building next door, which has to be tidier, being a shared space:
I'm happy to be excluded from the judging this week, as being a restorer, I may have an unfair (dis)advantage
cheers

A car can be restored at any time, but is only original once!
I think that is actually a caravan after a second look. With a fridge or something along those lines in the front of it, you can just make out the vents.
