    Any hot rodders out there have any reasonable long term indoor storage space near Chicago. Really need a spot that's secure soon. I don't use the truck, just need some long term storage. Retired from drag racing and I don't want to sell it. Thanks in advance.

    Try Midwest Hot Rods in Plainfield, they used to store cars there over the winter months maybe even longer.

    There's a guy in Beecher who has several buildings on his farm that he rents out.

    not my way will you find a heated unit for that ( west of I-57 ) , cheapest I have found for a 1 car is $125 and that was in a unsupervised spot . $150 at the local cubesmart where I store my car at and its heated and has security . storage is getting harder to find around my way due to the housing market .
