Default Winter Storage, Chicago south.

UPDATE FOR 2009

I have some storage space available again.
I'm in the country near Peotone about 8 minutes from I57. I live on the property and am pretty much always here. Very secure country residential area. I don't think anyone around me has any idea of what's stored here. Even my nearest neighbor only knows I have maybe one or two Corvettes. My FOUR low mile original C3s are here year round.
I don't run the heat any more, too expensive. But even on the coldest days it's usually above freezing. I'm comfortable in a sweatshirt when I'm out there. I do run ceiling fans in the spring to circulate the air.
$30 month(buck a day partial). I don't do this for the money, more so to help out other car nuts.
This is pretty much a casual arrangement. No contracts. You can pay when you remove the car if you want. Welcome to use my lift and wash facilities if you want.
Someone once asked if I have a sprinkler system, no.
Insurance on your vehicle will be your responsibility(remember, only $30 month!)
Mike

Wow Kaps what a great deal. By any chance, do you have property in McHenry County too?

Looking for a spot for my 18' Crestliner boat, any room for that in the building. It has a swing tongue, so it takes up about 19.5'.

Will it fit under a 7' door opening?

If everyone that says they want a spot shows up, got one more left after LKYMN
If anyone else reserved a spot, and then sold their car, please let me know.
