Looking for a place to work on my FC

Hey Midwesters, I have a project for my FC this winter but I don't have a place to work on it,
anyone know of a place around the twin cities that I can rent to work on my car?

If all else fails I will put it in a garage back home (500 mile drive)

Rent a storage unit and keep the door closed while wrenching on it.

Find buddies who are willing to let you borrow their garages/driveways lol. I'm always wrenching on my FB at my house.

I know a few people that did this. I don't think there is anything really wrong with it. You might check with the owner of the units. Just be tight on the security. The one person I know shared a two car sized one with someone else. They both had, what I would say, were very nice old muscle cars.

So a few places around here are about 150 or 160 per month that I can store my FC in and put a few... "performance orientated modifications" in it. Anyone know any place cheaper?

I was looking for a place to store my fb a couple weeks back for the winter and thats right around what I saw too. Anything cheaper will be an outdoor unit, AKA parking spot. I couldn't afford to store my car being a college student and all so its parked on a tarp covered in the grass.

Is that place temperature controlled?
