hopefully i don't ruin anyones sale, but if you have a welder, just make your own structure and cover it with a good tarp or 2, look at some for sale to see how they have them put together, and get someone to weld the steel to work, or if someone can bend half decent sized pipe, get them to bend it to what a professional one looks like, probably run you same amount if you'd have to pay for it, but perhaps you have "connections" to make it cheaper... if you had the time you could probably make one out of lumber also, but if you put posts in the ground it is a permanent structure and may "require" a building permit etc etc. If i was making a "temporary" garage i would anchor it down with ginseng anchors, and call for a locate on utilities if you don't know where yours run if it's going to be by your house before you dig.
