Well, the wife finally convinced me to buy a 4 door car. Our second child is on the way, and we needed a bigger car, so I bought a new Lancer Ralliart.

Now the question is what to do with the Nissan. I don't really want to get rid of it and the last time I put it in storage (during deployment) it got a few dings and dents.

I could take it to my folks house or I could see if there is a garage around here where I can strip the car down and begin my restoration project.

Has anyone here done a long term restoration though a garage? If so do you recall how much they charge for storage and usage fees?

Does anyone else have any ideas for storage? I would really like to work on the car while it is down.

Sounds like you would need to check your local classifieds for a garage or otherwise to work on your car. I rent a 800 square foot section in a warehouse for 300 a month, but I know the owners very well.

well, if you are on a tight budget like myself, try to keep it at a relatives place. my project is at my parents house because i have no place to have all these cars at my place. its also good because you can keep in touch more with your family by seeing them more often. double win. storage really takes away money from a build, unless money isnt an issue. around here storage can be had for around 100 a month, just a small area not really enough to work on a car but enough to def store it.
