Well I stopped by there shop today to check it out. Was a pretty cool place cause of all the cars in one place. They hold local shows for the bay area. He told me that was one of the things he wanted to do was bring the local hot rodder together since there are no true meet up spots. But from now till september at the last wensday they will hold a get together here in Mtn View. if you go to there website there are also a few other shows but the one held here in mtn view is free to get in and enjoy.

Just out of curiosity, what do they charge? How many cars are in their shop at a given time?

I'll find out pricing today. i didn't get to get into that when i was there. From what I know is the rent out the shop to poeple and the lift on a hr. fee. They also have other guys come in that offer services like body work, sheet metal, and extra hands. He says he trys to keep the price down just cause it the good thing to do. When i was in there there were about 10 cars in there and 2 lifts. The company next door is moving and the owner of Dream lot is thinking on expanding if he can get the right deal. Outside they had a load of cars and trucks just waiting to be messed with and re-born. There was a charger and challenger, GTX?? 440, and a few others in the garage that where completed. I should of took picture of the whole shop. it not very big due to all the cars crammed in there.

there used to be a shop here that only charged 5 bucks per hour for using their hoist. You could keep your project in there for a max of 10 days and then it had to be opened to others. It was a 3 bay garage with 2 hoists, but their wasn't enough interest here and it closed up
