Default Rent-A-Shops in Hawaii?

I have come to realize that, upon arrival to Honolulu. . . I will won't have an aduquate place to work on my car. Back in Denver there were some Rent-a-shops you could rent out for a week or so, so you could utilize that space for whatever required it. Ontop of having nowhere to but my tool box or air compressor, I haven't anywhere to even use them. . .So I'm faced to two problems.

Does Hawaii have Rent-A-Shops?

If not, do any of you own a garage that can accomidate for car and whatever work needs to be done to it?

Lmao, yyyeeaaahh, be better is it was yours. If I get the priviledge to use somebodys garage I'll give give them full access to all my tools. It's just tough using hobby shops on base cause your always on a time crunch and if your car has down time they won't let you leave it in there.

i left mine there for 3 days while I did the paint. for 3 dollars an hour or whatever they charge for stalls at the one by Pearl Harbor/Hickam, I don't think you would ever find a better deal.

Awesome. The $3/hr rule applies here too (Naval Sub Base New London) but nothing works, most of the lifts are broken and all the tools are trashy. How is the shop there? Is everything in good shape?

Can Govt. Contractors use the stalls on base? I can get on base, but I've never been able to figure out what facilities I can/can't use.
