In need of Winter Storage:

 

I am sending info regarding the garage availability to store cars. I would appreciate it if you can post it on your blog.

 

"Clean, insulated and secured garage (attached to the house) in Minnetonka is available to store 1 or 2 car/boat/recreational vehicles. Each vehicle is $120/month or $200 for two cars/month.
Contact info: (952) 930-1288''

 

As I mentioned, we have been storing some vintage cars in our garage for several years. I hope that this ad will help Minnetonka car enthusiasts to keep their car in clean, secure and safe garage this winter.
