Not sure how many are here that still remember me or my build, but i'm so close to getting it home.

I had dreams of bringing home my 818 (from storage) and working on it in our (barely) 1 car garage... But I knew there would never be enough room.

The plan all along since buying our new house was to build a new garage in our backyard so around 2021 I began on that process.

And what a ordeal it was... permits, hearings, surveys, more hearings, neighbor fights etc etc and here we are in 2024 with an almost finished garage that is almost ready to store the 818.

So here I am 4 years later, with the 818R coming out of storage almost exactly 8 years to the day.

Building the garage was an ordeal, but man, building a structure with your bare hands is so rewarding.

Sad to see that Mechie is selling his... hopefully I can ride this motivation to get back to it.

How many OGs still here?
