good evening!
today, i've been going through the details of what is needed to tackle the restoration of my original /6 and the most important thing i'm lacking is (work)space ... so, i'm looking for a indoor workspace big enough to comfortably be able to work in and around a 914 that will spend most of it's time on a rotisserie. there has to be plenty of space for parts bins and there will be a donor/partscar (original /6 as well) that needs to be stripped and cut up. while i'd like to get this done fairly quick, realistically i'm probably looking at 6 months to a year. this will be a ground up restoration. acid-dipping, lot's of cutting, grinding and welding etc. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) so, needles to say, there will be noise. oh, and a compressor for air-tools would be a plus (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) if there's anybody out there that has such a space avaiblable (i'm willing to pay rent, of course!) or knows somebody who does, please contact me!

I'm in Illinois, not too far to the east.
I have room. The rent would only be that you store it here when it is done, and leave me a set of keys so I can move it around a little...just a little.... |

Just send it to Gunnar. It will be cheaper in the long run. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Andy, the shop space three doors down from me is available. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) But you'll probably want to get a couple other people in on it. Rent is around $1000 a month. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) Same layout as my space but without the loft or workbench.

From the melee list:
QUOTE So I'm about to sign a lease on a 4200 sf building in San Leandro and I thought I would let the group know I'm looking for some renters. The options are dead storage, active workshop and everything in between. There is also quite alot of outdoor space for R/V or trailer storage. Rates are dependant on the type of access you require. Give me a call for details. Very secure alarmed building on a dead end street. Duff 415-640-0978 |
