Found a Dream house for us. Its was not planned just saw it and had to buy, so now have 5 acres to play with and so will be putting up a workshop / Man cave 3 time the size than I have now. Plus will have second floor for storage and an office.
Some time life throws you a curve ball and this time I caught it....
So a 40x80ft barn will be ordered soon, options are a steel structure or maybe even a more traditional Pole Barn....
these people have the best quote in so far...

A good summary of what we're all thinking ourselves. Jim1556 said:
Any updates Clive?
Clive has moved house so I assume the car is in storage somewhere.He has plans in place for the new workshop but weather conditions out there are making digging foundations a no-no.
In the meantime he is building his 'Brownie Points' reserve by completely refurbing the insides of the house to the managements specification.
I think it will be some time before we see any progress on the car but I'm looking forwards to the workshop build blog.

And for those that want to buy a original 595,000 quid
Blimey....when you see the crazy prices some Porkas go for that is an absolute steal. I'd be tempted to get it road registered if I had the dosh!And for those that want to buy a original 595,000 quid
Well its been to long since the last 962 pictures, so today it saw light for the first time in 12 Months. We are moving the storage Shipping containers it was in, as they where in the way of the new workshop build. The location for the shop has moved 3 times now but we have all the permissions now to put it in the best place ( Last duck to fall on that decision was the Gass company who's berried line was in the way). So time to get out the car and drag the container forward 30ft.... So seemed rude not to take a video and post a pictures... more pics of shop build very soon....

Spot on there Steve... but even management now understands the need for my workshop build to be the main priority now..... I'm so past bloody tiling and plastering now....He has plans in place for the new workshop but weather conditions out there are making digging foundations a no-no.

CliveWith your milling machine and skills you can earn way more per hour from your workshop than you would pay someone else to paint and tile....
Use those skills to make life more enjoyable!
Clive, Wow!
Just finished reading the whole thread and have been pretty much speechless at your work.
You should be at somewhere like Pagani and imagine you would be if anyone from there saw your work.
Are you full time into the car building as you must have a massive queue of people wanting cars done?
Would love for discovery to pay you lots of money for a show so everyone can see and appreciate your amazing workmanship and understanding of complex things.
I have run out of smoke to blow now!...
Look forward to future updates
