I worry about some of you blokes. Your workshops are tidier than my house.

I've been meaning to post in this thread for a while, but was a bit intimidated by the garages and sheds that are surgically clean and better furnished than my house. Anyway I've been in there cleaning for the last three weeks and finally got it to a state that I wasn't too embarrassed for others to see it, so here's a panoramic shot of my 'fleet'. Unfortunately only the Moke is drivable at the moment, its a matter of too many projects and not enough time or money.

In hindsight the shed is probably a bit too big for a suburban back yard, its a 6m X 9m Dutch barn with a mezzanine for storing household junk at the back and enough height for a hoist at the front (if I hadn't spent all the budget on the big shed).

Image

The long term plan for the J Type is to paint it in pre-BMC Morris dealer livery. I think it would look pretty good displayed with the Traveller.
