Hugh,
Was very lucky for 2 years. My old boss had a building that he used only half of. The front was offices and back an old Taxi company, which was empty. It sat empty for over a year until I finally talked him into letting me rent it. $200 a month for 150 x 100 feet enclosed with full heat and lighting, air and so on. Put every one of my cars in there and started to work.
Unfortunately 15 months ago he retired and sold everything, so I had two months notice to move everything out. Really threw a wrench in my plans as that also meant that we lost our jobs.
Life can be a ***** at times but you move on. The Jag is the one on my signature line and purchased new by my Father in 1969. It will stay in the family. May have it running this weekend and driving again by next week.
