Had to put her into a storage building - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

deth_1970 · 05-07-2005, 02:17 AM

today my friend called me, told me he was moving, and I needed to move my truck, so I ended up having to get a 10x30 storage building,
which turns out to be alot closer to where I live, so it looks like i will be getting to do more work on her,
kind've sucks living in an apt at times, and having a project, I have my roll away tool box in my walk in closet, which now i can take down to the storage building,
anyone else, trying to live in an apt and have to work on their trucks else where,

I know what you're talking about. I just got done doing a cat back exhaust on my DD in the parking lot. My '72 lives in another city and I only get to see her on the weekends.

What's really bad is both my roommate and i have project vehicles so there is a neverending stream of parts moving through the Apt. Right now there is a turbo kit, NX nitrous system and a body kit for my roommates car, and all my Prom burning stuff sitting in the living room.

I know the feeling. I currently live in a high rise building! Although I'm not doing a major restoration I have changed the starter, alternator, water pump, belts and hoses. and the pinion seal in the parking lot. Thank god i'm moving to a house june 1st with a two car garage. I got my air compressor already picked out. Theres nothing worse than having to lock up your truck, walk across the parking lot, go through the lobby, take an elevator up to the 6th floor , and go down the hall for some electrical tape or something stupid. I'm wich you brother it sucks bad.

I live in an apt. also. Our complex has garages for rent also, so I had to spend the extra $100 a month to put the truck in. Works out pretty good but it's a pain working on it in that small garage. At least I got something tho.
