Hello, My name is Kraig Klippel and I'm new to Raleigh. I moved here this past September and am currently renting a room from a co-worker. I own a 1994 Miata built to the limit of STS, which some of you may have seen it locally. It currently has looks like Mazda 787b seen here in this link. Currently the car is in an enclosed trailer at storage, but needs to have some winter projects completed. This is why I'm reaching out for help.

I do not have access to a garage space to work on it, would I be able to use your garage? The following is the list of things that need to get done.

-Change springs
-Pull the cams to change the Hydrollic Lifters
-Change the Engine Mounts
-Pull driver seat and reduce the weight

I would greatly appreciate it and would love to get this done before the Feb 16,17 test and tune.

You ought to work something out with Les Davis. His house needs a tenant.

Welcome to the area!

^^ This, Les want's to rent his house to a car guy and he has a big ass garage with an engine hoist/stand in it if I'm not mistaken.

great idea. Why rent a room when you can rent a house, garage and plenty of wood?

I usually only recognize your car when it's blazing past me in a blur...not used to seeing it stationary. Nice wrap BTW!

I have talked to Les. He wants to rent, I want to buy.

In the mean time, I need some garage space to get my projects done till I do find a house to buy. Since I'm not going to be in a house in the next month, would anyone be willing to let me use their garage for a couple of weekends till complete the Hydrollic lifter replacement?

Kraig's actually already been to the house to take a look at it, he seemed more interested in buying than renting and I'm really interested in renting. However Kraig, if you want to do something really short term while you look for a place to buy we could perhaps work something out?
