Fantastic job.
Did you do it all yourself and how much did it cost in the end

 

[andyv8van]

no, wish i could lol

i was the site clearing digger , must have moved plenty of top soil, rubble and shifted thousands of bricks.

i have fitted the doors and will get it all completed in time.

it has cost 10,200 up too now to get the dream garage i always wanted

Sounds interesting. Any pics, vids?

The Rover V8 is one fantastic lump. Power, torque, smooth - and that sound!
