1966 1500 SP Low Walkthrough Resto

Well I started on the workshop/shed today.

One bad thing about my house in no garage and a 1 car drive. But it does benefit from a 120ft Long garden so I've utilised the space down the bottom.

It's 3m x 4m and In sure it'll help me massively here's a couple pics

Hopefully get in finished on the next couple weeks and then have somewhere to store campers bits and rebuild the engine.

Cheers

Doing it yourself takes time....
But you will add and learn new skills...

Looks like you are doing well and getting the van wife balance right..

Bit more on the workshop this weekend. Been held up by delivery of the shiplap which has annoyed me a bit.
Got up to this stage

Made a start on the roof but can't put it on due to all the studs being removable for easy shiplap instalation so I could use the maximum space. I'm away this weekend but hopefully mid Feb should be complete and I'll have a nice big space to work in.

Thanks

Had a bid on eBay tonight and won a irs conversion for a good price. What's people opinions on the best spring plates to go low on irs?

Off away for the weekend tomorow so no updates on the workshop but next weekend it should hopefully be in full swing.

Cheers

So after a month of waiting and bagering my shiplap has finally turned up. Slightly took the mick.

But I have tomorow off work to crack on with it so hopefully can get most of it clad and possibly even start the roof.

Once this is done the fun camper bit can start wooo
