Project car storage / workspace
Discussion
Afternoon guys and gals!
So I need a bit of help. Currently I live up in Malton in a nice rented place with a garage for my project 1987 e30! However, in about 2 months I'm moving down to Barnsley (Barugh Green, if anyone knows it) to move into a nice house with my partner (awwwwwww). The house does come with a garage so I do have space for the shell, but my partner is doing what probably all our partners do at one point or another and making a bit of a fuss about it being in there! To add to this problem, my tenancy comes to an end approx. 3 weeks before we will probably be moving in, so that brings up the dilemma of where to store the car in that 3 week period, (and beyond if she gets her way!).
I'm currently looking at getting the shell fully acid dipped, stipped, and coated at some point in the future, which opens up the idea of cutting out the middle man (garage) and just having the shell sent straight to there. Another problem is I have no idea of where to take the shell to get this done. I'm struggling to find companies that do this anywhere near Barnsley/Sheffield. So I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas or contacts to help with either of these situations! A garage / unit that is suitable to rent for the purposes of a project car, and one that isnt too expensive. As well as if anyone knows of any good companies that do car shell acid dipping.
Thanks muchly! Sorry for the long read!
TL;DR..........Moving house, project car needs acid dipping near to Barnsley/Sheffield but need to find somewhere that can do it. Also need to find a garage or unit that will be suitable for the project car either before or after acid dipping!

Probably no use to you but I have a unit not that far from Malton (Driffield) that I restore classics out of.
It's many things but swish isn't one of them, however it's secure and your car would be welcome here for a few weeks if all else fails. I realise you probably want something more down that way but the offers there. On the same site there is trailer hire too if that is any use to you.

Hope its okay to resurrect a thread from 2019, however I live near Malton and I am searching for something to store a car.

Its not valuable so I am not looking for somewhere glamorous to store it and I dont drive it regularly (maybe need access twice a year). I just need somewhere dry and indoor to store it (preferebly rodent free would be a bonus).
I am just looking for a corner of a barn / shed to store is, as I havent got the heart to sell it. Do you still have a unit that you would consider renting a car sized space out to / do you know anything suitable local to Malton please?
