Another good thought before you line the interior is to use lots and lots of pegboard. I don't know if that's available over in the States: it's extremely strong artificial wall cladding with small holes every 1" with the next layer of holes offset underneath.
The pegs come in a variety of shapes and sizes with each one having two prongs to support practically whatever you want to mount to the board.
Double prongs to hang the stuff you want to be hung are available too.
From wrecking bars to paint brushes, hose clamps to turnbuckles, garden trowels to secateurs, 3 ft pipe wrenches to 4" crescent spanners.
Better to do it before you put the cladding on.
It's handy stuff and will fill up usually unusable spaces.johnboy

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
