Looking for Buddy near K.O.P

Hello,

I got a letter from my apartment complex saying the next time I have my car up on jack stands I will have to pay to get it back because they will have it towed. I am told that working on my car even something as simple as an oil change is NOT allowed on their lot. Its a complex full of zombies (a.k.a. old people waiting to die) they love to complain its the only form of entertainment they get I guess. I have never once even left a spot of oil, or any mess period because I bought this whole under car mat from costco which is super awesome! I even park/work on it way way out of the way in an empty corner of the lot where no one ever parks.... So... I was hoping maybe to make a friend on here with a garage or even just a driveway who was willing to trade my help on your mods for the ability to also work on my car with you :-) of course drinks and serious car conversation welcome! Hell ill bring the drinks!

I know where King of Prussia is. But I was unaware it was called K.O.P. Thanks.

Bring stuff to work and change the oil after hours or some random parking lot and just say you are changing a tire!

All of my friends are the cars are transportation type and always ask can i fix this/that for them... but they dont have room either. The place I used to live at had garages you could rent monthly... no such luck here. I have all my own tools/jack and stands... but now i lack the place to work... even autozone/advance now have signs saying "cant work on vehicle here"

If you feel like driving, I'm in central pa. welcome to use tools and jack/stands, just need to bring your own oil. I'm about 3 hours from Philly. Always an option.
