My car has been down for 2 months. I have it covered sitting at a friends house right now but need to move it out of there. Wondering if anyone in the Sanford/Lake Mary area has any room of any kind to help me out? I would store it at my apt complex.. But to be honest don't really trust it, not the safest. Any help would be appreciated if possible. Thanks in advance.

Matthew

Have you thought about getting a storage unit? Thats what some friends of mine do with their cars, they use it as a shop. Just a thought.

Hey Matt, if you can't find any space, give me a call, I sold the Lemans so I have some open space. We would just need to get it towed to my house.
I'm moving out soon, but at least it will be in good hands for the time.

Bummer on the distance, I have space but I'm probably at least 2 hours away. Hope you find somewhere to put it.

My tranny is still there on a little cart with a blue tarp covering it. That would be great, thanks Chris. I'll be stopping by school soon.

I got all that stuff plus some from tick performance. Their level 2 rebuild kit is $629 with free shipping. It's good to 700hp. I'm pretty happy with it, tranny feels awesome.
