A new home for my Stag - at last.

[Mike Stevens]

Nice work Julian, especially the organised storage. Sadly mine's nothing like that.

I built the garage straight after we moved into the house - you have to get the priorities right! In imperial units, it's 57' long with the back part 25' x 13' and the front part 32' x 9'. It was really nice and clear when I drove my 1949 LandRover in there when the concrete floor had gone off. Now, despite a major tidy up when I completed the Stag in 2012, it's full of cr@p and highly untidy. It currently houses a 1967 Herald convertable, the 1949 LandRover and of course the Stag. And a lot of other junk too!

I do hope you keep yours clean and tidy, but that could will depend on how much work you need to do on the Stag, so let's hope for no (or small) problems!

See you at the NEC I hope!

Cheers,
Mike.

So where's the beer fridge??

It's up here, hiding behind a heater and a dehumidifier. It's only a small one - 6 cans is enough

And thanks everyone else for your comments

Cheers

Excellent work, but I hope you don't mind me saying Julian that is is missing a couple of "must-haves"

1. A mini fridge to keep the beer in

2. A CD or Ipod player

Then, you will have no reason to go into the house and get caught up in washing up, housework, being nice to the wife's friends etc...:

Thanks Darren,

After four winters of working on my back on gravel on the old girl, I'm looking forward to a bit of warm and dry

I see you seem to have stripped the seats out of a McLaren F1... can't think of anything else with three seats? Any plans for them?

. Thanks Peter, although see post #18 re your first point. I've got a DAB radio in there already but I must sort something else out for music - good point

F1, I wish

Nothing as exotic but 1000 times more usable. They're from my 7 seat Citroen C8. I usually run with just 4 seats so had special brackets made to hang the spare 3 seats. When all the seats are out I can get almost ANYTHING in there - I had nearly a ton of logs in there the other day and it's carried Stag engines on more than one occasion. In fact, apart from a bodyshell, I've had just about every other part of a Stag in, or on, that car - try doing that in an F1

Most, or all, the seats will be in for a Stag owners trip up to the NEC for the Classic Car Show next month.

Cheers
