Default Long Shot - Assistance in Bay Area

I live in Australia and I used to travel to the Bay Area regularly for work. Right before Covid hit I bought a Dewitts radiator for the 64 and sent it to the office there ready for me to pickup on the next trip that never happened. Long story short, Covid closed the world, I changed jobs and the company closed the office and put my things into storage which now need to be collected (San Jose) by the 29th. Obviously I can't collect them, but they will be thrown out if I don't. It's not the end of the world, but I am planning to make a trip out there some time this year and it would be nice to retrieve it if possible. If you can help send me a PM and I can give more details, I am sure we can work out a storage fee !

There are many shipping and packaging companies in our city who would be glad to pick up, box, and ship for you. You arrange access with the storage facility to allow them to get your goods. Google Pack and ship San Francisco. Easy mate.

I am 30 miles south of San Jose and will be up there this week. I can pick it up and hold it for you if the timing works out . Storage fee would be a couple beers!

PM sent

I work in SJ, my office is only about 15 minutes from the airport as a point of reference. If timing doesn't work out with tuxnharley's offer, just let me know where to go and who to see.

I just want to say that I have had a number of offers to help and the Corvette community is awesome. I really wish I had got to meet some of you back when I was living in the Bay Area 10 years ago !
