Name's Brad. Have '97ThomasER/Cat3116/Allison3000
Apartment dweller in Portland,OR. needing other space/storage to work on my ”Skoolhaus”! Can't do much from the 4th floor.
I'm recovering from a parking enforcement "move it or lose it" scenario where after I was vandalized with someone trying to hotwire a Cat3116, took the switch out of the dash totally screwed up the electrical.
The business next door called parking enforcement and was latching on just as I was returning from parts run to fix the 1st problem. Had to stay the night in the bus as they won't tow an occupied RV (homeless issues).
They unhooked, but then I couldn't fix the electrical damage due to the stress of the situation. With impound vultures lurking, I had to call a tow and find a fleet shop to trace wiring.
Buses are an expensive tow much less $125hr feet mechanic. Came out $1500 lighter due to that night. Don't want to do that again! !
Can afford a meager rent, can make it up in trades... (DIY help). Got my 3T's (m'terials, tools & e'tricity} ready to build. If storage is all you can offer, I could take it off site to do my work... no problem!
My operation is portable. No engine work or painting will take place on your property. A 10' x 30' swatch would be a life saver. If someone in the PNW has a spot to work, please message me with any ideas...
Thanx!
