"C" mergency!!! Calling all LA residents!

I'm in a bind at present over the ownership of my C900 82T. The 8V engine blew on it two weeks ago and I opted to implant a good used 16V. Two days before the extraction and implant operation was to begin I had two likely candidates sitting at two different scrapyards in Sun Valley. The next day those cars two were gone from the yard! So I had to switch to plan B, which was a 16V with more miles than the two initial choices. I spent the weekend implanting that 16V, managed to start it up, only to find to my horror that that engine was a goner too. It was smoking like an old lawn mower and missing badly. Suspect is either a blown piston ring or one of the cylinder head valves. The good news is that I paid for a replacement warranty on that engine, so I can exchange the bad one for another one of my choosing. Only problem is that my window of opportunity to do the work on the property where I live has passed. I had just one week while a co-tennant was away. Worst case scenario is that I may have to junk this car. My hope is find a space near where I live to do the work. So I'm calling all LA residents who may have a space on their property (garage, car port, outdoor, indoor) that is willing to help me keep this gem of a car on the road. I do all the work, you just have the space. You'll be a hero! Much thanks in advance!
