jisleyjr Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 So i am picking up an 88 next week in Denver. I'll be in the area for a wedding on the 21st. I am borrowing my brothers duramax and a buddies trailer and coming down the weekend before the wedding. I'll be in Colorado Springs for a couple days then we'll be headed north to Greeley (that's where the wedding is), car is in Northglenn. I am trying to think where i can park the truck and trailer or just the trailer for a few days. I'll be crashing at my cousin's friend's place for a couple days and i don't want to impose on them, then during the weekend at a hotel. Anyone know of a place that would be cool with a trailer sitting there a few days? I have a hitch lock so i am only slightly worried that someone would steal it. I might just leave it hooked up to truck and bum a ride where ever we go. One option is to bring it back to colorado springs and park at my cousin's house, but that'll add a lot of miles to my return trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfelge Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 your friendly neighborhood Walmart usually works (at least where I live). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infamos Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I would say walmart as well but you should ask the store about overnight parking. Some don't allow it.I took a test drive on the Fiji conquest you purchased or at least I think this is the one. It was in Northglen. I ended up buying a complete motor from the same guy instead.

jisleyjr Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Yes this is a Fiji colored one with the cloth interior. Body looks decent from the pictures, hopefully it isn't a complete pile of junk, ha. Looks like there is a walmart close by to the hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infamos Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) The body isn't bad, no rust. There are a few dents. The car doesn't have much power. Just probably needs a full tune up. The seller is a good guy. I met him from the mopar scene a year or two ago. Edited July 9, 2012 by infamos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomad Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 I suggest leaving it at a mini-storage place. Give em $15 to secure it behind the fence for a week. It would make me nervous leaving it at a Walmart. My subcontractors have had trailers stolen from hotels, stores, and truck stops even with tounge locks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim_C. Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 Churches are usually good about letting you park something in their lot for a few days too. Not as secure as a storage place. I like that advice myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jisleyjr Posted July 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 ilber, thanks for the offer. I talked to my cousin and i was able to park the truck and trailer on his street for a few days, the neighborhood wasn't filled up yet so there was plenty of street parking. Then during the weekend i was at a hotel and there was street parking there too. I had no issues and no one messed with it. I drove straight through from Greeley to Fargo yesterday with a mild hangover. 13 hours, brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jisleyjr Posted July 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 The car has a more dings then i was expecting but no rust in the areas that mattered to me. I have a lot of work ahead of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
