    further to my thread about needing a furnished rental, I will also be needing a place to keep some cars. I am preparing those that can come over now, and the others that can come over within 1-2 years once they are 25 years old. Eventually, the count will come to something like 5-10, so I need to think about a place where I can store them securely under air. Some industrial park for example.
    So I don't need it immediately, but being a car nut I am already thinking about where to house them.

    Any ideas out there ?

    I could make room for 1 in my garage. 2 if they're both really cool. :D

    Dallas is a short 4 hours away by road. Give me a few weeks notice and I'll bring one or the other to you.

    I (and an old friend) keep our toys at a cheap shop in the middle of nowhere up north of Dallas. Its not really close to where I live, but it's big enough to house a small collection, and keep tools to work on stuff.

    Ross,

    I am in the same facility as Alara Garage: Alara Garage - We Share Your Passion For Automobiles

    Alara specializes in storing exotic cars in a centrally located facility. Anytime in/out privileges. We would be happy to give you a tour when you come into town.

    Michael has previously given me the tour of their facility and it's first class. Sphere Motorsports is also in the same area so great convenience when it comes to service/maintenance/repairs.

    I use Drivers Source - on the west side and a mile from my house - phone them and they'll get the car ready - I swap my 2 regularily - so I have one slot at the vault ...

    But enjoy looking at the selection of choices ..... when I was there an F40/F50 & Enzo were getting a warmed up as part of their storage schedule - bloody noisy and I'd have prefferred to hear the CGT/959/3.0RS being warmed :) .

    We just opened up the expansion today. Another 12,000sqft of storage. There is plenty of room and we would love to have your car(s) there.
