WRX/Porsche Karmann cabrio 1303

The workshop/garage will develop over time but I've got it into a state I can use it now...


The bug's new home and my new workshop! Finally got a double garage... I have lost a lot of alternate storage though so I've had a bit of a clearout. All walls and floors have been painted, I've welded up a frame to mount the compressor up on the walls and made a new workbench.


Sandblasting cabinet has a new set of wheels to make best use of space.


You can see the compressor mounted up out of the way. Also, I've put up some hooks so I can hang a tarpualin down the middle to protect the car when I'm grinding etc etc


I bought a couple of 7'x4' bike stores for outside storage, the drive isn't really full double width so it's no big loss of space.


I'm pondering over whether to get a single full width roller shutter door or not as it would be fairly pricey. I'm also not sure whether I'd have to replace this wooden lintel, it's full width and 4" x 8". Can anybody advise? Could I bolt on some metal strengtheners and leave it in place?
