  1. Total span was ok to deal with, but they are franchises so each area will be different, but the product has held up really well, the main reason I chose them was because of the design of the frame, no horizontal bars on the roof framing so more clearance for overhead stuff.I had similar Iissues with space at my place, 6 x 7 was the biggest I could fit!!

    E46 M3 project

    Flick me a pm IF you want I can powdercoat over It with matt black or something!!
  4. I built a 6 x 7 total span at my place about 7 years ago, all up was around 30k, I got someone to do the slab and I did the rest. I had to get a fire engineers report because I was close to the boundary, as well as a survey to check the boundry. I also had to get an engineer to do a PS 4 because I built it myself (about $500 from memory) I have one of those wind powered ventilators so no condensation issues, but it still gets hot in summer. I also increased the wall height to 3m so I could have a gantry beam running across with a chain block for lifting engines etc. I also spent a lot getting power put in, I have 20 x 10 amp plugs, 1 x 15 amp, and 1 x 32 amp for my welders. (Still not enough!!) Inside is lined with 12mm ply so I can attach stuff to walls, and it is insulated with noise stop batts to keep the neighbours happy! Have fun!
  5. Kinda need to move this on, $8000 to BS members. Price wont be going any lower than this. Will hang on to it for a project or something if it doesnt sell.
  6. They seem to have bottomed out price wise, I paid 2700 for mine 3+ years ago, similar condition.
  7. I'd be very wary of something with a raper at one end!!

  12. Im glad you didnt get any closer, you would be able to see how filthy It Is!!!
  13. Did you take the caliper apart and clean the slides and grease them when you did the pads? It is probably worth doing before you look at rebuild kits etc.
  14. My e36 coupe had a similar mishap, was insured for 2.7K, my panelbeater asked if I wanted to write it off or save it because it could go either way!! I decided to save it.
  15. I would cap them just to stop crap getting In there In case you need to use It one day.
  16. Places like the shock shop have a machine for testing this, might be worth a phone call.
  17. You might be showing your age a bit there Graham!
  18. So when he says every extra, he means fog lights and a boot spoiler?
  19. 2 never used pairs of bmw toolkit pliers, $10 for both.
  20. Zinc electroplated some parts for the E21, and because I am a modern sensitive man I didnt even do it in the kitchen sink!
  21. Gave the e39 a wash and clay bar, then drove home from work in the rain
