well we are sleeping in it!!! inside is done, well except for a missing dishwasher..... some trim painting out side left to do, garage door is a no show....something about a pandemic screwing with the paint supply chain.

one of the three storage areas has been emptied, a second one is 85% empty. the last is our furniture and that may be 3 weeks out, once I have a garage door I will arrange to bring the MGA home. once we have more grass I can take down the silt fence and the super silt fence, that maybe in two weeks. the news paper used to wrap the glass with in one of the boxes said January 2019....its been a long time.

That looks fantastic! What a journey, I'm sure you're ready for the sigh of relief.
 
well it finally had to happen......Construction is over and our belongings are now in the house, MGA and welding stuff is still in race car trailer at sons inlaws house and as soon as we get the moving overflow boxes and stuff out of the garage the MGA Coupe and welding stuff will come home....maybe 2-4 weeks away

the garage is never large enough... I have this dastardly plan, though, my wife wants a LR Defender 110. I haven't mentioned it won't fit in the garage :amused: I guess I'll just have to put one of my cars in her spot.... sorry honey :D
