That's a familiar colour. Also the Abarth sump and twin exhaust.
I painted the wire mesh under the vent red and then picked out the bolts that hold the vent on in red.

Now THAT is what you call 'nearly proper sized workshop'! I don't think the word "shed" does it justice

It's a bit small, I think you should build a bigger one!
Ahhh . . . if only Ihad something like that, I could have a lot more cars !!

when we bought the property 2.5 years ago the shed was an old overgrown greenhouse. We put in the concrete and shade material and actually did fill it with cars. It's very weather tight for what it is. We co-own the property with my wife's sister and her husband so it's a shared space and they are not all my cars. But I do have a problem, i admit it.
We even had a gig in there. We are lucky to have it. There's also the main garage/workshop at the front of the property:shrug:

That wasn't 'grass' that I saw growing there was it? Or was it just weeds?

ha ha, no just weeds. Interestingly our neighbours purchased their property years ago at a govt auction. The property had been seized after a massive "grass" growing operation was discovered in their multiple greenhouses. The owner also owned a local brothel at the time, too. Seems quite tame around here now.

Interesting that the original owner of your neighbour's property also owned a brothel---when Ann and I lived in Edinburgh (which we did for 9 years, just after we got married) we did not, to put it mildly, have much spare cash. There was a period of time when at about 10.30pm, just after the pubs had shut, we got a series of phone calls asking for Mary, or Sue, or Janet. We were totally baffled and intrigued by these calls, all very polite. Eventually we asked one of the callers who they thought that they were calling, to which the answer was "is that no the Reaburn Sauna?" When we answered in the negative, the caller just said "sorry Jimmy" and hung up-----it turned out that the Reaburn Sauna's phone number was only 1 digi out from ours, and it gave "additional services!" and coming out of a pub with maybe more alcohol consumed than was wise, it wasn't difficult, in the dark, to ring the phone number of the sauna slightly wrong. Were we, jokingly, tempted to say--"yes, come on round?"
