Again, well done Esprits4s.

Do I assume from your avatar you have your own car lift, that has to make the job easier.

Just imagine trying to do that job with the car on axle stands, laying on your back with your hair floating in a pool of oil!!!!

Yes, but sadly no. I purchased the lift last summer, and this would have been my first major project using it. Unfortunately, I managed to lose the keys to the 928 currently on the lift. I'm still hoping to find the keys, so the 928 sat on the lift while I worked on the floor under the Maserati. The lift definitely would have made the job easier.

Here's a picture with the offending Porsche in the background:

Nice little workshop you have there, dead jealous!

What else can I spy in there, a cat basket and what looks like a 1980's arcade machine???

Yes, I am a nosey begger!!!

Yes, the garage is due for a clean out.:) No cats, but that is an arcade cabinet. This garage is primarily used for storage and parking. I have a second garage where I do most of my automotive work and store my tools, shop equipment, and the Esprit.
