hey i dont have a building to put mine in. i know this sounds really redneck but i live in a trailer park and do my work on the street in front of my trailer. heck right now i got my donor out there with the grill out, the radiator out, all the trim gone, the transfer case out, all done on the street. so if you got a place to park it you got a place to work on it

well from some of your pics looks like you live in a motel so maybe not. but doing little things like fixing the carb shouldnt be a problem.
