Nice of you to put pictures up of your bird's beetle bonnet...

 

...I'm disappointed though because I thought this thread would be all about sheds.

Thats how i ended up with my white 205 , "Don't want a boring white car!" she said.

Its not boring anymore, with a gti6 engine and VTS gearbox , she ain't having it now though :D

i started preping the car mnths ago and had to do it ouside i got most of it prepped and ordered some new wings but now ive just had a prefab garage put up and i bought a new compressor so i thought saying as ive prepped a wing for paint i will try the compressor out so i painted the wing,then the next night i prepped the bonnet and thought i might aswell paint that then last night i prepped the door so i painted that tonight i know i should do it all the parts in one but i havent got the time to spend all night painting them at least this way im only in the garage for 1 hr at a time and i do it all day for a living
